ABSTRACT – An apparatus for attaining, sustaining and measuring a sharp maximum load of a complex target black-box system is given, comprising a plurality of independent clients, each employing a sensitive load reciprocation mechanism based on a sigmoid function. A method is taught which yields an accurate convergent result quickly, it is suitable for improving the economy of load testing, and presents an opportunity for improving the economy of a prolonged system usage. Functional variations of the self-regulating load method yield additional advantages.
