    Hello, I am building a rather large web application and I am concerned about the scalability / ability to work under high load/stress. How can I simulate high server load / high number of visitors etc.? Anyone have experience with this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    There's also a built in apache utility called ab (apache benchmark). I don't believe it simulates real visitors very accurately, but it's a good way to do a stress test on a single page.
