Oninit BenchIt Toolkit

Well what the results will tell you will vary but our old production server, an old Sun E4500 with 6CPUs and IDS Version 10.00.FC6, we can see that the total transaction rate increased as we ran more users, initially with 5 BenchIt running we saw an average transaction rate of around 210, but when we increased the number of BenchIt to 30 the transaction rate rose to 510 despite the fact that each individual BenchIt was lower.

The final summary results shows what happens when we move from what was a very powerful state-of-art machine in the 90's to cheap Fedora server running with Dual Quad Intel CPUs with IDS 11.5.FC6. We see the that the transaction rate leaps from 210/510 to 2800/7500.
