Tools for stress-testing the site

Posted by on 05 May 2008 in Activity log

Sysadmin put me on to BadBoy and JMeter, which they use for load testing. Both look excellent, with BadBoy the most user-friendly in that it provides useful reports; JMeter reports are a bit more complicated to configure, but might be worth the trouble. I'm going to get familiar with these over the next few weeks.
