 The Application Security Component benchmarks have been run on a AWS EC2 Instance `t2.medium` (2vCPU/4GiB RAM).
 
 All the benchmarks have been run with only one `routine` configured for the Application Security Component.

+# Stress Test
+
+This test was run on a `c5a.4xlarge` EC2 instance (16CPU/32GiB RAM).
+
+Tested versions are:
+
+- Openresty `v1.27.1.2`
+- CrowdSec `v1.7.0`
+- cs-openresty-bouncer `v1.1.2`
+
+Openresty was configured to not log anything and forward requests to a Go backend that always return 200, in order to improve raw throughput and not be limited by disk access.
+
+Crowdsec WAF was configured with 16 routines to make use of as much CPU as possible.
+
+All tests were simulating 400 concurrent users, making requests as quickly as possible during 1 minute.
+
+Except for the baseline, all values in the tables are shown as a delta from the baseline performance.
+
+## Baseline
+
+This test was run without loading the Openresty bouncer to get a baseline throughput of the system.
