Description:
weighttp (pronounced weighty) is a lightweight and small benchmarking tool for
webservers.

It was designed to be very fast and easy to use and only supports a tiny
fraction of the HTTP protocol in order to be lean and simple.

weighttp supports multithreading to make good use of modern CPUs with multiple
cores as well as asynchronous i/o for concurrent requests within a single
thread.

For event handling, weighty relies on libev which fits the design perfectly,
being lightweight and fast itself. Thanks to that, weighty supports all modern
high-performance event interfaces like epoll or kqueue, that the major OSs
provide.
