Hi
So the server in the intranet got also Internet access with https://docs.moodle.org/en/Masquerading ? Yes, that is the prescribed method. (You see, it is always good to close the thread once you found a solution.)
The server you are discussing has nothing to with that intranet server? But the network may be involved. Since this looks like a high stake examination you must be conducting it in the institution's network. What about the slow network connection you mentioned in the previous discussion? Do these 600 candidates, some downloading audio, go through that slow link?

Hi
So this is the Internet access to Moodle - as opposed to Intranet access? Ref. In-campus access thru intranet site and outside internet access. Could you give us an update here? (Unfortunately the original thread has been locked.)
Yes, the JMeter testing has been vastly simplified in Moodle core albeit not well documented. See Is moodle-jmeter-script-generator still maintained?. The bad news is there is no scheme for the quiz activity. So only the "discarded" rule of thumb Ken mentioned - "for every 20 concurrent connections =1 Gig memory" - still stands. 30 GB is probably not the range you expected.
BTW, when the quiz "crashed" with 600 exam candidates, were you monitoring the server? Which is the parameter which broke the server? You also mentioned some complication in your network in the old discussion I have linked above. Has it been resolved?

Documenting hoster-specific instructions here on moodle.org has another down-side. Automatically the documentation will be limited to the big hosting providers, which is unfair for the small providers.
On OVH, the current discussion Error when logging in with Chrome is not too encouraging, isn't it?
About the forum, I vote for the Hardware and performance forum as another thread about hosting providers.
N.B. Did somebody call GoDaddy? Go Daddy! (Where to?).

OK, they seem to be regular.
About the session time-outs: How long is your site's session time-out, how long is the exam?
