Re: benchmark tool for http session
Hi,
AB is still your friend. You can check remote hosts.
Example: I want to check the speed of the company's intranet webpage.
I'm going to request the index.php page 1000 times, with 5 concurrent
connections.
'ab -n 1000 -c 5 http://192.168.1.200/index.php'
It will output connectiondelays (ms), transferspeeds, time-outs, etcetera.
Very usefull.
Just put your testbox 'before' the firewall and go ahead. AB even supports
round-robin.
I suggest you check out 'man ab'. ;-)
Regards,
Pim

Hello "Pim Effting" <peffting@chello.nl>,
Thanks. I'd not only to test the http request, but also the tcp session.
A http request to a html page could couse many tcp session. And I want
to test the tcp session limit on the firewall or server load balancer.
Basically, a http request could generate 5 or more http session, right?
