[users@httpd] Question about "ab"

In the "ab" documentation


http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/ab.html


it says ...


-c concurrency

  Number of multiple requests to peform at a time.


Exactly what does "at a time" mean? Every second?


Thanks

If you ask for 10,000 requests with a concurrency of 5. There are 5
threads each going as fast as possible to reach 10k total.  It does
not try to burst 5 simultaneous requests.
