Hammerhead 2 is a stress testing tool designed to test out your web server and web site. It can initiate multiple connections from IP aliases and simulated numerous (256+) users at any given time. The rate at which Hammerhead 2 attempts to pound your site is fully configurable, there are numerous other options for trying to create problems with a web site (so you can fix them). It can be used to test the behaviour of the port under load, or the ability of the port to service a set of requests. Warning: Hammerhead can destroy a web site very quickly (and cost you lots of money if you pay for traffic you generate). It should only be used to generate heavy loads on local web sites for testing purposes.
