IxLoad 5.20 Performance -- Data 

NOTE: [1] All numbers quoted in the table below are measured using a pair of Appliance nodes, one node acting as client and another as a server. In some cases, per node server performance is the limiting factor. 
All the values are calibated with IxLoad 5.20 EA with IxOS 6.00 EA Patch 2.
