siege VS loadtest

Benchmarking: Benchmarking is the process of testing the performance of your application under a specific workload or set of conditions. You can use tools like Apache Bench or Siege to simulate load on your application and measure how it performs.

You can use things like Siege to DOS stress-test.

I have used siege in the past. It's been a while, though.

Siege.

I like https://github.com/JoeDog/siege for quick and dirty. A bit more flexible than apache bench

cluster - npm link loadtest - npm link "os" is a nodejs core module

More details: I am learning about node.js clustering. I have 6 core AMD CPU. for testing the load I used loadtest package. Both tests where executed by node server.js

For benchmarking, I will use apache bench. We can also use loadtest which has similar functionality.

To load test our Node.js servers with and without clustering, we will use the Vegeta load testing tool. Other options can be the loadtest npm package or the Apache benchmark tool as well. I find Vegeta easier to install and use because it is a Go binary, and the precompiled executables are seamless to install and get started.

When I throw loadtest on it, I got this:

I used https://www.npmjs.com/package/loadtest but my computer does not go over 100 rps. Why is that? I have a pretty good gaming computer.
