Hi,

A customer has asked to stresstest his application before going on-line.

The application will be a webspeed application. Each monday morning a lot of work is done with this application. This wil result in about 400 users who enter there workdata between 9:00 and 11:00. They will use the application using intranet/extranet/internet.

I'm not really into Webspeed so I have the following questions:
- Does webspeed give a "number of connections (-n)" message when there are not more connections allowed.
- Can I expect problems due to network or license issues

Edit:
And the most important one. How can I stresstest this webspeed application.
 
You can download Microsoft's Web Application Stress Tool, and use it to simulate a high load against any web application, including WebSpeed ones. Visit http://webtool.rte.microsoft.com/ for more information and to download it. Also, if you have Visual Studio .NET, there is a web stress tool available in it which is better then the one available for download.
 
re:

Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool (ab)
can be a solution. Any unix apache distribution have this
tool (including linux).
Your problem will be the network. If the network bandwidth
is 64Kb/s ... 400 users will share it.
