New package: httperf-0.9.0 - A tool for measuring web server performance

[Dr. Volker Zell]

Hi

The package httperf is now available with the Cygwin distribution:

 o http://code.google.com/p/httperf/ (Homepage)


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.


Enjoy
    Volker
