Chat
Maximum Users 1500
Notes
The number of concurrent HTTP connections for Chat was configured to the maximum.
CPU and RAM usage were both under 80% when the number of maximum users was reached.
For tested models with expandable memory, the maximum amount of RAM was installed.

Maximum Number of Synced Files (ext4) 1,000,000 / single file reaction time 630 ms
Notes
The maximum number of concurrently connected devices refers to the maximum number of devices that can remain connected at the same time. For more information on file processing capability, please refer to the reaction time for file processing.
File reaction time refers to the preparation time required for other devices to start downloading a 1KByte file from a Synology NAS after the file has been added to the NAS. RAM expansion was not used during testing.
Non-encrypted shared folders were used during the aforementioned testing.
