# of Siege Transection

[Henry]

First of all, I would say Siege is a great tool. Thank you.

When i run something like siege -c300 -r1 -f urls.txt -d1, everything
run okay...the output sometimes will be

Transactions: 2XX
...
...

OR
Transaction: 300
..
...
OR
Transaction: 3XX


Why would the transcation NOT equal to 300??? beucase based on the
doc..

transaction should = # of concurrent usr x repeated time i.e 300 x 1 =
300 in this case..

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I missed this message. Do you have redirects or auth challenges
in your list? They can both increase the number of transactions beyond
your calculation since siege counts each request as a transaction.
