11.1 Domino Workload Descriptions

The Mail and Calendaring Users workload and the Domino Web Access mail scenarios discussed in this chapter were driven by an automated environment which ran a script similar to the mail workloads from Lotus NotesBench. Lotus NotesBench is a collection of benchmarks, or workloads, for evaluating the performance of Domino servers. The results from the Mail and Calendaring Users and Domino Web Access workloads are not official NotesBench tests. The numbers discussed for these workloads may not be used officially or publicly to compare to NotesBench results published for other Domino server environments.

Official NotesBench audit results for System i are discussed in section 11.14 System i NotesBench Audits and Benchmarks. Audited NotesBench results can be found at http://www.notesbench.org .
