Fellow Kohackers,


Do any of you have a favour script or suite of scripts (or even a method) for doing load testing against a Koha installation?  I know there are some scripts available in misc/load_testing, but my understanding is they aren't terribly useful or current.  Is that correct?

Something that can throw a user-configured amount of punishment at a Koha server, then report on the results, would be ideal.  The output should include both the user perspective (response times) and what's happening on the machine (memory/CPU usage, query times, etc) in the context of the machine's specifications.

If all this data can be compiled for various configurations, I think we'd have the makings of a fine, evidence-based Koha Tuning Guide.

Thanks, all!


-Ian
