It is designed to give you an - impression of how your current Apache installation performs. - This especially shows you how many requests per second your - Apache installation is capable of serving. - -<strong>OPTIONS</strong> - -<strong>k </strong>Enable the HTTP KeepAlive feature, i.e., perform - multiple requests within one HTTP session. - Default is no KeepAlive. - - -<strong>n </strong><em>requests </em>Number of requests to perform for the benchmark- - ing session. The default is to just perform a - single request which usually leads to non- - representative benchmarking results. - - -<strong>t </strong><em>timelimit</em> - Maximum number of seconds to spend for bench- - marking. This implies a -<strong>n 50000 </strong>internally. Use - this to benchmark the server within a fixed - total amount of time. Per default there is no - timelimit. - - -<strong>c </strong><em>concurrency</em> - Number of multiple requests to perform at a - time. Default is one request at a time. - - -<strong>p </strong><em>POST file</em> - File containing data to POST. - - -<strong>A </strong><em>Authentication username</em>:<em>password</em> - Supply BASIC Authentication credentials to the - server. The username and password are separated - by a single ':' and sent on the wire uuencoded. - The string is sent regardless of whether the - server needs it; (i.e., has sent an 401 authen- - tication needed). - - -<strong>p </strong><em>Proxy</em>-<em>Authentication username</em>:<em>password</em> - Supply BASIC Authentication credentials to a - proxy en-route. The username and password are - separated by a single ':' and sent on the wire - uuencoded. The string is sent regardless of - whether the proxy needs it; (i.e., has sent an - 407 proxy authentication needed). - - -<strong>C </strong><em>Cookie name</em>=<em>value</em> - Add a 'Cookie:' line to the request. The argu- - ment is typically in the form of a 'name=value' - pair. This field is repeatable. - - -<strong>p </strong><em>Header string</em> - Append extra headers to the request. The argu- - ment is typically in the form of a valid header - line, containing a colon-separated field-value - pair. (i.e., 'Accept-Encoding: zip/zop;8bit'). - - -<strong>T </strong><em>content</em>-<em>type</em> - Content-type header to use for POST data. - - -<strong>v </strong>Set verbosity level - 4 and above prints infor- - mation on headers, 3 and above prints response - codes (404, 200, etc.), 2 and above prints warn- - ings and info. - - -<strong>w </strong>Print out results in HTML tables. Default table - is two columns wide, with a white background. - - -<strong>x </strong><em>attributes</em> - String to use as attributes for <table>. Attri- - butes are inserted <table <strong>here </strong>> - - -<strong>y </strong><em>attributes</em> - String to use as attributes for <tr>. - - -<strong>z </strong><em>attributes</em> - String to use as attributes for <td>. - - -<strong>V </strong>Display version number and exit. - - -<strong>h </strong>Display usage information. - -<strong>BUGS</strong> - There are various statically declared buffers of fixed - length. Combined with the lazy parsing of the command line - arguments, the response headers from the server and other - external inputs, this might bite you. - - It does not implement HTTP/1.x fully; only accepts some - 'expected' forms of responses. The rather heavy use of - <strong>strstr(3) </strong>shows up top in profile, which might indicate a - performance problem; i.e., you would measure the <strong>ab </strong>perfor- - mance rather than the server's. - -<strong>SEE ALSO</strong> - <strong>httpd(8)</strong> - -</pre> -<!--#include virtual="footer.html" --> -</body></html> |
