Alfresco content service is throwing ETIMEDOUT and ESOCKETTIMEDOUT

loharms — Thu, 16 Jan 2020 04:56:17 GMT

We are trying to send 2000 requests to Alfresco content service(On-premise setup) with 20 users in 100 seconds as per our project use case. We are getting below errors:

ETIMEDOUT: 410 , ESOCKETTIMEDOUT: 61

Is it the expected behavior? Is there any rate limit on the service?

How are you making the requests?

We are using request module from node js in our project. There we got the multiple timeouts while sending the multiple requests to Alfresco service. So we tried stand-alone program with 'Artillery' utility just to check if it is really a Alfresco issue. Atillery utility requires endpoint url and authentication information in yaml file just like below:

config:
  target: 'http://<host:port>'
  phases:
    - duration: 100
      arrivalRate: 20
  defaults:
    headers:
      Authorization: 'Basic <authentication_token>'
scenarios:
  - flow:
    - get:
        url: "/browser"

Getting reply as below:
