apache bench (ab)で、cookie認証ページに HTTPS GET / POST で負荷(性能)test

HTTP GET

$ /home/endo/local/apache80/bin/ab \
  -n 5000 \
  -c 10 \
  -v 2 \
  -C "iPlanetDirectoryPro=＜認証tokenなのでナイショ＞; HTTP_havi-id=＜ナイショ＞" \
  https://stress.test.hostname.example.com/

HTTP POST - ポイントは「-p」「-T」オプション

$ /home/endo/local/apache80/bin/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
     :
    -p postfile     File containing data to POST. Remember also to set -T
    -T content-type Content-type header for POSTing, eg.
                    'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
                    Default is 'text/plain'
     :

ヘルプによれば、上記の通りなので、次のコマンドラインでOK

$ /home/endo/local/apache80/bin/ab \
  -n 1000 \
  -c 10 \
  -v 2 \
  -p /home/endo/tmp/postdata.file \
  -T "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -C "iPlanetDirectoryPro=＜認証tokenなのでナイショ＞; HTTP_havi-id=＜ナイショ＞" \
  https://stress.test.hostname.example.com/

参考までに「/home/endo/tmp/postdata.file」の内容は次の通り

$ cat /home/endo/tmp/postdata.file
