insufficient throughput or response time on minimal configurations
subject			fact

insufficient throughput or response time on minimal configurations	has definition A defect that occurs when the system is tested on a minimal configuration and its throughput or response time fails to meet requirements
	has testing strategy perform testing using minimally configured platforms for extra reliability, test the system in an environment that has a configuration that is worse than the minimum: In such conditions, it should report that it cannot run properly
	is a subtopic of 10.6 - Defects in Handling Stress and Unusual Situations
	is a kind of defect in handling stress and unusual situations
defect in handling stress and unusual situations	can be detected by running the system intensively suppling the system with a very large amount of input running many copies of the system running the system on a computer or network that is busy running other systems running the system in atypical environments
	is only encountered when a system is being heavily used, or forced to its limits in some other way
	represents a lack of robustness
defect	has example the absence of code to handle an exception
problem	has solution which will normally entail developing software, although you may decide that it is better to purchase software or to develop a non-software solution
	should be written as a simple problem statement in one or two sentences
