Number of concurrencies - In Apache's ab test, how many requests are there for 10 concurrencies?

Question

Using the ab test tool that comes with Apache, how many requests will there be for 10 concurrencies? How is the concurrency calculated? Is it the number of requests in one second or the number of requests within a certain period of time?

This sentence explains that Baidu’s average concurrency is only 8.25?

Requests per second:    8.25 [#/sec] (mean)

Answer 1

10 concurrency means 10 requests are sent to the server in an instant. If the server processes it quickly, then continue, but the total number of requests is included in the parameters. In fact, it is to reduce the total number of requests you set to 10 concurrency each time. Go to the server, see how long it takes for the server to finish processing, and calculate the average response per second

Answer 2

The number of requests per second you see is very low because many websites will judge your test as a CC-like attack and will deliberately reduce the response or even block your request
