The Apache project's got a free java program for load testing called jmeter. It's probably a little more basic than you're looking for but it's free, easy to use and is good for initial testing. Take a look at http://java.apache.org/jmeter/ for details. -----Original Message----- From: Allan McIntosh [mailto:amcintosh@atreuscorp.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2000 3:03 PM To: linux-net@vger.kernel.org Subject: web server stress testing Hey, Can anyone recomend a method or existing software to make multiple simultaneous http requests from a webserver. If possible I would make the request appear to be coming from different ip addressses?
