Secure API Manager allows 1,500 requests per second to each appliance when we deployed the appliance in the performance testing environment listed in Table 2-1. If you increase the processors to eight processors per appliance we allow 2,900 requests per second. If you deploy an additional appliance, the requests scale linearly.
You add the additional processors through the VMware administration tools. For more information, see Change the Number of Virtual CPUs in the Host Client.
