How many connection have you made?
Hi, Guacamole support!
I'm Takuya!
Thank you for all your help and support.
What is the maximum number of users that Guacamole can tolerate?
It would be nice to have a track record rather than a theoretical value.
I'll need to know the specs of the server at that time.
Also, are there any points other than load balancing that I should be aware
of when a large number of users connect at the same time?

That was so helpful!
Thanks!

There is no specific maximum. The rule of thumb is that you should be able
to support 25 concurrent users for every CPU core and 2 GB of memory.

The above number is from a load test that we performed at Glyptodon with
~2000 concurrent connections and a variety of server configurations. We
found this rule of thumb to be consistent for small numbers of connections
up to thousands, regardless of how those cores are split among your
Guacamole servers.
As long as you have the server power, there is no inherent limit.

Be sure to use the NIO (non-blocking) connector in your Tomcat's server.xml
rather than the default blocking connector, as the latter does not play
well with long-running TCP connections like WebSockets.
