Full description
Httperf is a tool for measuring web server
performance. It provides a flexible facility for generating various HTTP
workloads and for measuring server performance. The focus of httperf is
not on implementing one particular benchmark but on providing a robust,
high-performance tool that facilitates the construction of both micro-
and macro-level benchmarks. The three distinguishing characteristics of
httperf are its robustness, which includes the ability to generate and
sustain server overload, support for the HTTP/1.1 and SSL protocols, and
its extensibility to new workload generators and performance
measurements.
