In depth

A closer look at WebStress

WebStress is useful for testing straight HTTP page performance, or for benchmarking the performance of scripts. It simulates any number of simultaneous users accessing a Web server.

Simply enter the Web site URL and the number of requests to perform. WebStress shows you a table and a graph which displays the average request time and the transfer rate (in kilobytes per second). It can also log the results to disk.

WebStress can test any URL you give it, including HTMs, ASPs, CGIs, PHPs, Applets, JSPs, EXEs. It supports proxy servers and password-protected pages. It can optionally handle cookies and user agents, preserve ASP-session-IDs during runs and it can display HTTP headers or data.
