If you also want to synthesize traffic you could also check out siege and curl-loader. If you have a high hitrate in your cache you'll most likely end up benchmarking the tools rather then varnish. I think I measured siege to be ~3x slower then varnish. -- Per Buer - Leder Infrastruktur og Drift - Redpill Linpro Telefon: 21 54 41 21 - Mobil: 958 39 117 http://linpro.no/ | http://redpill.se/ ___ varnish-misc mailing list varnish-misc@projects.linpro.no http://projects.linpro.no/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
Varnish performance tests
Hello, In our studies we have a project which consists in testing the performance of Varnish in order to make a comparative with and without the proxy cache. Does anyone know which utilities to employ ? (knowing that the aim is to justify our tests) Thanks in advance.
