Number of message performance

I want to use Openfire for mostly pushing out pubsub messages. So I would have pretty low number of users but instead a lot of traffic. Anyone that have any experience or any knowledge of what kind of performance that I could expect.

Right now I have made some tests on my computer and I’m able to push about 2000 messages per second to a client that also is on my computer.

There are some load test tools out there, maybe they are helpful here:
