Some quick observations from results: 1. The user load times start from 30+ seconds 2. The error rate also increases with higher requests/sec. 3. text/html , which is the output of django app, is taking 62.74 % time. Overall things don't seem optimal. If you are testing based on load times of 30+ sec then the test approach may not be practical, you dont expect your visitor to wait 30+ sec. Your application itself may need more fine tuning. text/html generation time seem on higher side. Also be mindful that generally database performance on Amazon EC2 is lower compared to bare metal servers but you have mentioned that the queries are minimal so not sure how much would that have any impact. What is the payload of your html page ? Without knowing much about the application its usually difficult to say much but based on the results, there seems to be scope of improvement in html generation itself. rgds vivek -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
