ApacheBench
The Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool ("ab") may be the most commonly known benchmarking tool.
Example:
URL=https://localhost:8080/test.php # Number of requests for n in 500 1000 5000; do # Number of concurrent connections for c in 10 100; do # Use HTTP KeepAlive feature? for k in 0 1; do [ $k = 1 ] && k="-k" || k="" ab -n $n -c $c $k -e ab_n"$n"-c"$c"$k.csv -g ab_n"$n"-c"$c"$k.dat "$URL" > ab_n"$n"-c"$c"$k.txt done done done

http_load
http_load hasn't been updated since 03/2006, so it's kinda dated. Here's how to run it:
wget https://acme.com/software/http_load/http_load-12mar2006.tar.gz tar -xzf http_load-12mar2006.tar.gz cd http_load-12mar2006
You may want to apply the following patch, so that 1) http_load will be compiled with OpenSSL support and 2) install to /opt/http_load:
$ diff -u Makefile.orig Makefile --- Makefile.orig 2013-02-17 11:34:18.706179572 -0800 +++ Makefile 2013-02-17 11:36:23.175770197 -0800 @@ -9,14 +9,14 @@ # https://www.openssl.org/ Make sure the SSL_TREE definition points to the # tree with your OpenSSL installation - depending on how you installed it, # it may be in /usr/local instead of /usr/local/ssl. -#SSL_TREE = /usr/local/ssl -#SSL_DEFS = -DUSE_SSL -#SSL_INC = -I$(SSL_TREE)/include -#SSL_LIBS = -L$(SSL_TREE)/lib -lssl -lcrypto +SSL_TREE = /usr +SSL_DEFS = -DUSE_SSL +SSL_INC = -I$(SSL_TREE)/include/openssl +SSL_LIBS = -L$(SSL_TREE)/lib -lssl -lcrypto -BINDIR = /usr/local/bin -MANDIR = /usr/local/man/man1 +BINDIR = /opt/http_load/bin +MANDIR = /opt/http_load/man/man1 CC = gcc -Wall CFLAGS = -O $(SRANDOM_DEFS) $(SSL_DEFS) $(SSL_INC) #CFLAGS = -g $(SRANDOM_DEFS) $(SSL_DEFS) $(SSL_INC)
Now we can build & install it:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/http_load/bin /opt/http_load/man sudo make install
