Curl-Loader (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. curl-loader is an open-source software performance testing tool written in the C programming language. curl-loader is capable of simulating application behavior of hundreds of thousands of HTTP/HTTPS and FTP/FTPS clients, each with its own source IP-address. In contrast to other tools curl-loader is using real C-written client protocol stacks, namely, HTTP and FTP stacks of libcurl and TLS/SSL of openssl, and simulates user behavior with support for login and authentication flavors.
