Estimated time to crawl content
Estimated time to crawl content
Crawl testing focused on performing crawls of the three different types of content sources with and without latency and bandwidth constraints. However, due to the time involved in setting up, running, and reinitializing each test scenario, the tests were only performed for one bandwidth and latency combination for each content source. With this in mind, testing focused on the most likely worst-case scenario at 100 ms of latency and 10 Mbps bandwidth.
