Magento Web workload Benchmark

My proposition is to add real life benchmark for web services. This proposition was tested by our team using Magento (PHP based free to use web shop).

To simulate with you workload which you are interested in this benchmark should share some options:
- Number of DB machines
- Number of Cache machines (default 0 – without cache)
- Number of Web machines (Front-End)
- All-in-one option (run all services on one VM)
- Number of clients at ones (number of clients machines is counted automatically based of that number)
- Shop size (number of products)
- Workload time (default 600s)

Technical spec:
- Magento
- MySQL
- Memcached
- Apache
- Gatling – for traffic simulation

Data are automatically generated on provision machines with DB.
Whole test return us:
- Request per second
- Median time of request
- Distribution characteristic
