Hi Sebastian,
last year I used lwp to do some benchmarking of our e-shop... i.e.
login, pick something from the basket, go to the checkout and
checkout... i used the hi-res timer around each operation from a client
which forked off n clients and did m requests each... all writing to the
same log file... along with a little stats afterwards using
statistics::descriptive? however i never did get around to modifying
tinyproxy to help gather the information required to fill all the form
variables automatically... as i had to do all this by hand which was a
bit painful... well compared to doing it automatically that is ;-)
cheers,
