Stuck at 100 requests uWSGI

Question

httperf ... --rate=20 --send-buffer=4096 --recv-buffer=16384 --num-conns=100 --num-calls=10

Gives 1000 requests as expected on nginx.

On same hardware querying uWSGI on port 8000 results 200 requests and 100 replies, and 100 reset connections. What's wrong? The server is extremely powerful.

Answer 1

This is the more logic answer:

The listen queue size is reported on uWSGI startup logs.

But as you have not reported your uWSGI config, it is impossibile to give you the right hint.

Answer 2

Just use <listen>1024</listen> directive in your uWSGI config.
