I am looking for a program that will benchmark a web server. I have found a
few but nothing that really works.
Preferably I would something that would run off of a Linux Mandrake 6.1 box.
However I do have both NT and 98 available if I have to.
Suggestions anyone?
Thanks

Linux:
look for Nbench, and Unixbench, and for X, HDbench, and x11perf,
and there's always hdparm for drives, and somethin called cpuburn,
but I haven't tried that.
x11perf -rop GXcopy GXxor -repeat 2 -all results_file.txt ..will
put the whole system thru a coupl'a hours of h#!! I believe it's
already there if you have Mandrake 6.x
That's all I've found, 'course if you know how to get lm_sensors,
and klm, (mdk rpm's) workin, in spite of the documentation (lacking,
contrary), then by all means, holler back
W9.x
there's a zillion, but i believe 3dmark99max is a good all around
system test w/ video card included. ZD's CPUmark99 for the
processor, their downloadable Winbench 99 stuff. I use Sandra99,
but not too sure how much to trust the results (cpu and mem BM's
seem to be alright), WinTune98- but only for the video tests.
I believe CPUmark99 is the best for testing L2 latency changes.
For both OS's, you can use Prime95 (internet prime number search,
either the search, or it includes a 'torture test' that will report
errors. If you know how to stop Windows 9x from being present, a
_very_good DOS system test is SafBench. Tests cpu/cache/ram and
records any errors, w/ or w/o 'hlt's, lot's of other options
All the BM's I've mentioned are free
BUT, the final say so comes down to the apps I use that stress
my hardware the most flight sims (W98).
SL35D@567 L2,7 PC100@126 cas2 (till I verify some temps, then 608),
