Vegeta is an HTTP load testing tool and library designed to measure the performance and stability of web services. It functions as a command-line utility, a programmable package for integration into other applications, and a distributed load generator capable of splitting request rates across multiple machines. The tool is distinguished by its constant-rate request scheduler, which dispatches requests at a fixed frequency regardless of target response times. It employs lazy target streaming to maintain low memory usage during large tests and uses a binary-encoded storage format to minimize di
This project is a command-line utility designed for HTTP load testing and network stress testing. It functions as a benchmarking tool that generates high volumes of concurrent traffic to evaluate the performance, reliability, and throughput capacity of web applications and APIs under sustained load. The tool allows for precise control over traffic generation by enabling users to configure request parameters, including custom headers, authentication credentials, and specific HTTP methods. It manages load through a worker-pool system that regulates request frequency, allowing for both time-boun
Bombardier is a concurrent HTTP load generator and performance benchmarking tool written in Go. It functions as a latency distribution analyzer and benchmarking utility designed to measure the throughput and response speed of HTTP services by simulating high-volume request loads. The tool provides specific capabilities for TLS benchmarking, supporting client certificate authentication and the ability to bypass server certificate verification. It distinguishes itself through the use of a token-bucket algorithm for precise request rate limiting and the use of templates to export benchmark resul
wrk2 is a high-performance HTTP benchmarking tool and constant throughput load generator. It is designed to measure server stability and throughput by sending a fixed number of requests per second, functioning as a high-resolution latency profiler and a Lua-scriptable performance tester. The tool distinguishes itself through a scriptable interface that uses a high-performance just-in-time compiler to define complex request formats and custom response reporting logic. It employs high-resolution histograms to capture precise response time distributions and high-percentile latency data. The pro
