I tried a bunch of tools and ended up using Jakarta J-Meter b/c it works cross-platform (Unix/Windows in my situation) and has a gui which shallows the learning curve. I''ve been quite satisfied with it.. Search the archives on this list and you should be able to find some great info Zed and others wrote a while back on How to Load Test Correctly. I found that series of posts to be pretty helpful in testing Mongrel/Rails. IIRC, about this was about 10 months ago.

Is this the thread you''re remembering -- looks like it might be: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2006-September/001349.html Thanks.

Ok, make me work. That''s a good one but not the one I was thinking of. Digging, I find these two from Zed - the first one is the one I was thinking of, and the second refers to a screencast that will surely help you out too: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2006-May/000200.html http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2007-March/003111.html Also don''t miss this epic one from Ezra on how to figure out the right number of mongrels: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2006-December/002591.html Summarizing, because that''s all I''m good for on this list.. Steve p.s. Looks like my 10 month guess was actually pretty wrong :) At 10:10 PM 10/16/2007, Robert Mela wrote:>Is this the thread you''re remembering -- looks like it might be: > > >http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2006-September/001349.html > >Thanks. > >Steve Midgley wrote: >>I tried a bunch of tools and ended up using Jakarta J-Meter b/c it >>works cross-platform (Unix/Windows in my situation) and has a gui >>which shallows the learning curve.
