I've done some tests with Apache Benchmark, a small utility I found in
Apache 1.3.6.
It can run multiple requests concurently (configurable through command
line args). Other parameters like number of requests vs. time to
run, or a keep-alive option are also available.
It is very efficient - it can retrieve thousands of requests per second
without reaching 100% CPU usage, an important issue if you want to measure
the web server not the benchmarking tool.
With other tools, (based on java like jmeter) is a risk to have
the web server more performant than the benchmarking tool is able to
stress it.
I liked "ab" is small, simple, fast.
