[gentoo-user] ap apache benchmark tool

[James]

Hello,

Has anyone used this tool to check an apache server on gentoo?

http://www.cisecurity.org/bench_apache.html

If so, did you like/dislike the tool?

Any unoffical ebuilds of this tool anywhere?



James

It should be part of the apache package anyway:

  equery b `which ab2`
  [ Searching for file(s) /usr/sbin/ab2 in *... ]
  net-www/apache-2.0.58-r2 (/usr/sbin/ab2)

I used it when I was still working in a computer company and I liked it for 
basic benchmarking. For further information this might be helpful:

ah yes, well my searches for 'ab' were
fruitless, now I know why....
