apib

Simple and fast HTTP performance testing tool

apib is a tool that makes it easy to run performance tests of HTTP API servers. It has most of the features of Apache Bench (ab), but is also intended as a more modern replacement. In particular, it offers: - Proper HTTP 1.1 support including keep-alives and chunked encoding - Ability to spawn multiple I/O threads to take advantage of multiple CPU cores - Non-blocking I/O for high concurrency - Support for POST and PUT of large objects - Support for OAuth 1.0 signatures - Ability to output results to a file so they may be automated - Remote CPU monitoring - Simple command-line interface
