I am using JMeter and CanooWebTests.

But as for me, there are rather different aims for performance testing
tool and for functional testing tool.

When you are testing performance you should send requests as quickly
as possible. You don’t need to spend time for parsing html, supporting
javaScript, building DOM, etc…  

You should send requests for loading server. As for AJAX: It is
possible to test AJAX applications, you don’t need support
HttpXmlRequest for this. Just send request and process the response.
You need to implement your web client logic on JMeter plan. It is not
very easy, but it is possible.

Another problem when you want to test application and client should
send several requests in the separate threads using one session (to
test AJAX really asynchronous)... But I think it is another theme for
discussion.
