How do siege and vegeta compare to apachebench?
- anonfunction 11y agoSiege is very comparable but vegeta has a lot more output options such as graphs, JSON, CSV, etc... Another tool I forgot to mention was wrk (and now wrk2) which are unique in that they are scriptable via lua.
- tobz 11y agoAs a small follow-on, there is also Barrage [1], which is more of a framework than anything else. kellabyte wrote it to benchmark changes to Haywire [2], so it's geared towards configuring your client and server, and then collecting all of the metrics from both the client side, and the server side, and displaying them in an easy-to-digest format. This obviously isn't terribly useful if you're just trying to gauge request rates, or apply load, but it's very useful if you need a repeatable way to not only measure request rates but see how your server is doing under load.
