ApacheBench sends sequences of HTTP requests to an HTTP server and keeps track of the time taken to receive a response, the data that was returned, the size of the data that was returned, and various other bits of information. . Since it is implemented in C, it sends HTTP requests in a tight loop which can stress your server to 100% capacity, especially if invoked in multiple concurrent instances. It gives accurate time measurements down to the millisecond for each HTTP request-response interval. . Included is a simplified re-implementation of ab using the ApacheBench/Perl API. This should help get you started with ApacheBench. . This description was automagically extracted from the module by dh-make-perl.
