I need to drive my apache server 2.2 a overload situation. I'm using the

Hi -

Unless I'm misunderstanding your question, I think you can "overload" it 

by hitting it with 257 concurrent connections.

Can you elaborate a bit more on exactly what you're trying to test? 

Perhaps we can give some better suggestions.

Thanks
