title: Hystrix Configuration
body: <p>I am trying to implement hystrix for my application using hystrix-javanica.</p>
  
  <p>I have configured hystrix-configuration.properties as below</p>
  
  <pre><code>hystrix.command.default.execution.isolation.strategy=SEMAPHORE
  hystrix.command.default.execution.isolation.thread.timeoutInMilliseconds=10000 
  hystrix.command.default.fallback.enabled=true
  hystrix.command.default.circuitBreaker.enabled=true
  hystrix.command.default.circuitBreaker.requestVolumeThreshold=3 
  hystrix.command.default.circuitBreaker.sleepWindowInMilliseconds=50000
  hystrix.command.default.circuitBreaker.errorThresholdPercentage=50
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>short-circuit pattern is working fine but i have a doubt in this <code>hystrix.command.default.circuitBreaker.requestVolumeThreshold=3</code></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Is it stating open the circuit after 3 failures 
            or</li>
  <li>Open the circuit after 3 concurrent failures.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Gone through the documentation <a href="https://github.com/Netflix/Hystrix/wiki/Configuration#circuitBreaker.requestVolumeThreshold" rel="noreferrer">link</a></p>
  
  <p>Can anybody answer?</p>
