are there any load/performance tools available that can be used to stress test a cocoon site?
Simple tools like wget and ab (http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/programs/ab.html) also work wonders if you're a bit creative in bashing your server with them.
Calling these from tight loops in shell scripts, started on many clients hosts at the same time, or from many terminal windows on a single client can already tell you a lot about how your site performs.
Of course, more sophisticated tools are very useful as well, but even these two simple ones help a lot, and they're quick and easy to start so you can use them very often when developing your app, instead (or in addition to) doing big tests when everything's supposedly done.
