Each scenario-puzzle takes 15-ish minutes and comes with special markdown hyperlinks that launch various java workloads on your own box to help you understand the performance scenario.

# System Requirements
* Uber jar is 330mb, but a total of 1.5g disk available space is required. SUT is unpacked to $HOME/.load-test-in-a-box
* Uber jar is 400mb (or less), but a total of 1.5g disk available space is required. SUT is unpacked to $HOME/.load-test-in-a-box
* 2 CPU cores
* 8g RAM
* 1.8+ JDK
* Tested on MS-Win and Mac, but Linux should work too…..pls file a bug report with any problems.
* Currently Chrome has been tested and works fine but Firefox does NOT currently work. See [this bug](https://github.com/eostermueller/load-test-in-a-box/issues/92) for details

The above should be enough to get you started.
For a little more background, here's a 15 minute video that shows the process:
