开源性能测试工具 - Apache ab 介绍

服务器负载太大而影响程序效率也是很常见的，Apache服务器自带有一个叫AB(ApacheBench)的工具，在bin目录下。使用这个轻巧的工具我们可以对服务器进行负载测试，

基本用法:

例:ab -n 1000 -c 50 http://www.test.com/t.php

得到结果类似于(后面颜色字为中文翻译):

Server Software:        Apache/2.0.55
Server Hostname:        localhost
Server Port:            80

Document Path:          /1.php
Document Length:        82522 bytes #请求文档大小

Concurrency Level:      50           #并发数 
Time taken for tests:   92.76140 seconds#全部请求完成耗时
Complete requests:      10000         #全部请求数
Failed requests:        1974          #失败的请求
   (Connect: 0, Length: 1974, Exceptions: 0)
Write errors:           0
Total transferred:      827019400 bytes#总传输大小
HTML transferred:       825219400 bytes
Requests per second:    108.61 [#/sec] (mean)#每秒请求数(平均)
Time per request:       460.381 [ms] (mean)#每次并发请求时间(所有并发)
Time per request:       9.208 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)                              #每一请求时间(并发平均)  
Transfer rate:          8771.39 [Kbytes/sec] received#传输速率

Connection Times (ms)#连接时间
              min  mean[+/-sd] median   max
Connect(#连接):        0    0   2.1      0      46
Processing(#处理):    31  458  94.7    438    1078
Waiting(#等待):       15  437  87.5    422     938
Total:         31  458  94.7    438    1078
