Study
system capacity under changing load conditions,

vary
computational load off-loaded to proxy

Results:
|
|
|
|
– |
Proxy
makes slow handsets/clients faster
|
|
|
|
– |
System
capacity decreases slightly
|
|
|
|
– |
For
system under study, application server more likely to become
|
|
|
bottleneck
than proxy
|
|
|
|
– |
č single proxy server can support current
client population

Caveat:
results specific for application studied, may not

|
|
generalize
for more demanding multi-medial 3rd-generation

mobile
applications
