Multithreading with REST
HCP lets multiple threads access a namespace simultaneously. Using multiple threads can enhance performance, especially when accessing many small objects across multiple directories.
HCP has a limit of 255 concurrent REST connections per node, with another 20 queued.
The REST, S3 compatible, HSwift, and WebDAV APIs share the same connection pool.
TipFor better performance, consider limiting the number of concurrent read threads per node to 200 and concurrent write threads per node to 50 for small objects. For large objects, consider using fewer threads.
