To stress the Web servers adequately, our test bed included thousands of virtual clients, which were created by distributing 50 copies of RADView's WebLoad across 10 workstations on a Fast Ethernet LAN. We were most impressed by the distinction between the baseline testing and the HCM testing: Both of the HCMs alleviated substantial stress from the server, which continued to run despite an overwhelming number of requests. Without an installed HCM, the server crashed more than once, which was a surprising, welcome result.
