    Hi all,

    You might already know about this, but I'll go ahead and post this anyway.

    A friend of mine recently pointed out a tool for testing your web server's
    performance "under siege". It's appropriately named Siege:

    "Siege is an http regression testing and benchmarking utility. It was
    designed to let web developers measure the performance of their code under
    duress, to see how it will stand up to load on the internet. Siege supports
    basic authentication, cookies, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It allows the user
    hit a web server with a configurable number of concurrent simulated users.
    Those users place the webserver 'under siege.'"

    It can be found at http://www.joedog.org/JoeDog/Siege
