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 protocol, and its -extensibility to new workload generators and performance measurements. -In addition to reporting on the design and implementation of httperf this -paper also discusses some of the experiences and insights gained while -realizing this tool." - -"This paper" refers to the paper that was written on this program. I don't -think I could possibly summarize it better than the above paragraph. - -WWW: http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/David_Mosberger/httperf.html - -- Will <andrews@technologist.com> |
