Django tip: Caching and two-phased template rendering | Holovaty.com

Tue, 19 May 2009 04:08:50 +0000

Beware of the Dog | JoeDog / Siege

Thu, 06 Nov 2008 14:57:58 +0000

"Siege is an http regression testing and benchmarking utility. It was designed to let web developers measure the performance of their code under duress, to see how it will stand up to load on the internet. Siege supports basic authentication, cookies, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It allows the user hit a web server with a configurable number of concurrent simulated users. Those users place the webserver "under siege." "
