http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42040 Summary: ab doesn't consider varying length documents Product: Apache httpd-2 Version: 2.0.58 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: support AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool needs to have an option to ignore varying length documents. This could be a flat ignore option, or threshold valued argument. Why? In CGI environments the document length isn't necessarily sable. On the first iteration of a bench test, ab saves the length of the document in a variable called doclen. It then uses this as a comparison of what subsequent document lengths should be. Therefore, if the page being tested isn't stable in document length, the tool reports massive amounts of `Failed requests` due to `Length`. This makes the tool useless for sites that don't have documents of stable length. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
