I was wondering if anyone has run across a good tool to load test a web
server and connectivity.  I'd like to see how my web server stands up to a
load of like 5x, 10x, 20x and 50x of what I get now.  The two issues I
probably need to test would be connectivity to the server and then server
performance under load.  I'm not sure how to go about simulating the
connections that would probably also need to do things like run some of the
perl programs, mysql accesses and such to have it be a fair test... Also,
it would be nice if it could interpolate results to give an idea of where
it would it would die or be dead for real purposes and show what the
bottlenecks might be (ram, nic, etc..).  Any ideas?
Jerry
