You can't really compare ab and LWP. ab is fast partly because it's not
doing anything beyond what's absolutely needed and it's making a bunch of
(usually correct) assumptions.

So what you're going for should probably be a more flexible ab with a Perl
interface, but still with a focus on speed and benchmarks. Not a general
http tool (like LWP).
