| <longdescription lang="en">Httperf is a tool for measuring web server |
| performance. It provides a flexible facility for generating various HTTP |
| workloads and for measuring server performance. The focus of httperf is |
| not on implementing one particular benchmark but on providing a robust, |
| high-performance tool that facilitates the construction of both micro- |
| and macro-level benchmarks. The three distinguishing characteristics of |
| httperf are its robustness, which includes the ability to generate and |
| sustain server overload, support for the HTTP/1.1 and SSL protocols, and |
| its extensibility to new workload generators and performance |
| measurements.</longdescription> |
