This is just the kind of thing I'm looking for for testing SSL acceleration
cards. By testing on the actual server I can see the raw performance
increase without having to factor in network latency.
However, I can't download it as I get "the page cannot be displayed" in IE
(I know I knock it, but unfortunately I have to use the stinking thing for
my work. Not my decision)
Is there somewhere else I can get it from?
