    hi, @Tree

    because of nature of client lib it is not very suitable for testing. The thing is that it creates thread per connection and in the end you are limited by system resources. It is not very good too have too many threads in one process.

    so, I would say that it might be good to run 50-100 connections per perf test client.

    Mimic means that you will do things similar on what your users will do:
    - joining
    - moving
    - grouping
    - fighting
    - chatting
    - leaving

    this all is very game specific, so there is no one advice that fits to all needs
