So, I should be more specific with my question: to the end of determining strictly which webserver is more efficient do you see any problems with this type of setup?More 'efficient' I think you mean.
Is that not exactly what I said?
And another question: how would you do it differently? Sure, in an ideal world I could assemble my own botnet and then blast my corporate network with a gigabit of distributed traffic multiple times for each webserver -- but obviously in the real world that's not going to happen.The question you have to ask yourself is what are you wanting to test? A completely artificial metric with no real-world correlation? If so, then you're on the right track.
Instead of dancing around the issue can you please provide some suggestions? Or do you just like to be contrary?
