Sure, and some of the other tools have no such limits, either. Don't get me wrong: I'm not knocking at all the tool you're pointing out. I'm really just clarifying for folks that yes, there are different tools and some have no limits. That said, the reason I recommend the commercial one is just that it's packaged well, has a commercially supported base product, etc.
For instance, sometimes the free ones can hammer a given URL, or even a set, but when it comes to making them vary per request, then they get harder to use. That's a feature in the Paessler tool, so worth exploring, even if it's limited in users. Just different strokes for different folks. :-) /charlie From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Ross Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2010 12:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Load testing a ColdFusion server I meant to point out that siege's max concurrent users are only limited to the amount of bandwidth/cpu power that you have to produce the desired amount of concurrent connections.

To be clear, again, there are several other free solutions in my list that can "test basic concurrency", too, and I clarify which are free/commercial, downloaded or hosted, and what platforms are supported. /charlie ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
