An asynchronous HTTP benchmark tool built on top of async, async-io and async-http. Useful for analysing server performance. Supports HTTP1 and HTTP2.
Install it yourself:
$ gem install benchmark-http
You can run benchmark-http is a top level tool for invoking specific benchmarks.
This benchmark spiders a website and generates some statistics on general access time.
