Independent streamfwd (HEC) tests - default configuration
This page shows performance test results for an independent streamfwd
binary sending data to indexers using HTTP Event Collector (HEC) and default stream configuration. For detailed test environment and configuration information, see Splunk Stream test environments in this manual.
Note: splunkd CPU % and Memory MB performance metrics do not apply to streamfwd
when sending data to indexers using HEC.
