Description

webbench is very simple HTTP benchmarking tool, which can benchmark both WWW and proxy servers. webbench uses fork() for simulating multiple clients and supports benchmarking by HTTP/0.9-HTTP/1.1 requests (without Keep-Alive). This benchmark is not very realistic, but can test if your HTTPD can really handle many clients at once (try to run some CGIs) without taking your machine down. I am using this program for setting maximum number of Apaches. Webbench displays results in pages/min and bytes/sec.
