how to load more requests per second in karate gatling

We updated the docs (in the develop branch) with tips on how to increase the thread-pool size if needed: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/develop/karate-gatling#increasing-thread-pool-size

Add a file called gatling-akka.conf to the root of the classpath (typically src/test/resources). Here is an example:

akka {
  actor {
    default-dispatcher {
      type = Dispatcher
      executor = "thread-pool-executor"
      thread-pool-executor {
        fixed-pool-size = 100
      }
      throughput = 1
    }
  }
}

Since we made some fixes recently, please try to build from source if the above does not work for 0.9.6.RC4, it is easy, here are the instructions: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/Developer-Guide

If that does not work, it is important that you follow this process so that we can replicate: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue

Please see these links below for good examples of how others have worked with the Karate project team to replicate issues so that they can be fixed:
