RE: Application for stress testing webservers.

["Jason Gregson" <Jason.Gregson () easyi com>]

I use Jmeter to good effect
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/

What can I do with it? 
Apache JMeter may be used to test performance both on static and dynamic
resources (files, Servlets, Perl scripts, Java Objects, Data Bases and
Queries, FTP Servers and more). It can be used to simulate a heavy load
on a server, network or object to test its strength or to analyze
overall performance under different load types. You can use it to make a
graphical analysis of performance or to test your server/script/object
behavior under heavy concurrent load. 

Regards

Jason

We're using the grinder for that purpose:
