WebBench: An Nginx Stress Testing Tool 运维之家

Apache comes with the ab command for stress testing services, but Nginx does not have a built-in tool. You must use third-party software for this purpose. Today, let’s briefly introduce how to use webbench for Nginx stress testing. Stress testing is essential for system administrators and operations personnel, as it clearly reveals how much load a server can handle. Note: The tests here were performed on a virtual machine.

1. Download and Install webbench

wget http://home.tiscali.cz/~cz210552/distfiles/webbench-1.5.tar.gz

tar xvf webbench-1.5.tar.gz -C /usr/local/
