9 Small Environment – Average Activity -Hardware requirements will vary based on number of assets and typical activity. In a small environment with average activity, all components may be installed on a single system. System Specification: CPU:Dual 2 GHz RAM:2 GB Disk:150 GB free Agents: 2K-5K Activity: Average

Additional Engine systems are added as needed to distribute workload. System Specifications: MDB and Manager CPU:Quad 2 GHz RAM:4 GB Disk:150 GB free Additional Engines: CPU:Single 2 GHz RAM:1-2 GB Disk:50 GB free Agents: 15K-20K Activity: Above Average Agents: 25K-30K Activity: Average

The next few slides touch on only a small subset of the testing conducted. Understand that because many of the items in the test plan would require installation of thousands of systems and agents, a simulation tool known as “Load Tester” was employed. “Load Tester” generates the CAM messages that agents would produces at a very high, configurable rate, “bursting” them onto the network in large batches. Details on the rates used for individual tests should be documented with the results posted. DSM r11 From the Stress Lab

To gauge performance with realistic data, a replica of the GIS North American UAM Domain containing approximately 16,000 units was used as the source. DSM r11 From the Stress Lab: Migration
