Load Testing: Simulate Real Traffic with Distributed Proxies
Simulate realistic distributed traffic for performance testing. Proxies bypass rate limits and replicate traffic from thousands of unique IPs. Essential for validating application scalability before launch.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many proxy IPs do I need for load testing?
How many proxy IPs do I need for load testing?
This depends on your rate limits and test scale. For tests generating thousands of requests per second, you might need hundreds of IPs to avoid per-IP rate limiting.
Will load testing through proxies add latency to results?
Will load testing through proxies add latency to results?
Proxies add some latency, which should be factored into result analysis. Use proxies in similar regions to minimize this effect, and establish baseline latency measurements.
Can I use residential proxies for load testing?
Can I use residential proxies for load testing?
Datacenter proxies are generally better for load testing due to higher speeds and lower costs. Use residential proxies only when specifically testing behavior that differs for consumer traffic.
How do I avoid triggering DDoS protection during load tests?
How do I avoid triggering DDoS protection during load tests?
Notify your infrastructure team and temporarily whitelist test IPs if possible. Use realistic traffic patterns and gradual ramp-ups rather than sudden traffic spikes.
