   wrk is a modern HTTP benchmarking tool capable of generating significant

   design with scalable event notification systems such as epoll and kqueue.

   An optional LuaJIT script can perform HTTP request generation, response

 Any noticeable differences from siege? Thanks.

Hi, Dmitry:

One big difference is the LuaJIT scripting support in wrk.  E.g., I
believe with siege, the HTTP requests have to be constructed ahead of
time (though there is support for variable expansion), whereas wrk can
call a user-supplied Lua function to generate a request.
