RE: [PHP] sending a large number of connections at the same time

Assuming you're using Apache as your webserver, try ApacheBench. It's as /home/src/apache_1.3.12/src/support/ab on my system. So just look thru your source dictory. It's options are as follows: marley:/home/src/apache_1.3.12/src/support# ab -h Usage: ab [options] [http://]hostname[:port]/path Options are: -n requests Number of requests to perform -c concurrency Number of multiple requests to make -t timelimit Seconds to max. wait for responses -p postfile File containg data to POST -T content-type Content-type header for POSTing -v verbosity How much troubleshooting info to print -w Print out results in HTML tables -i Use HEAD instead of GET -x attributes String to insert as table attributes -y attributes String to insert as tr attributes -z attributes String to insert as td or th attributes -C attribute Add cookie, eg. 'Apache=1234. (repeatable) -H attribute Add Arbitrary header line, eg. 'Accept-Encoding: zop' Inserted after all normal header lines. (repeatable) -A attribute Add Basic WWW Authentication, the attributes are a colon separated username and password. -p attribute Add Basic Proxy Authentication, the attributes are a colon separated username and password. -V Print version number and exit -k Use HTTP KeepAlive feature -h Display usage information (this message) So you would want "ab -n 100 -c 100 http://www.yourserver.com/" or something similar. I hope that's of use.
