Hits per second<\/strong> represents the number of requests sent to the server in one second (the load which the server is being hit). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hits per second is the total load set by the concurrent virtual users on the server, no matter if they are executed successfully or not on the server side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number of requests executed successfully by the server per unit of time is called throughput<\/strong>. Learn about what is throughput<\/strong> in performance testing<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
