# The benchmarks/httperf port

## httperf-0.9.0 – web server performance testing tool

## Description

    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.
