      PortSystem 1.0
      Name: httperf
      Version: 0.8
      Category: www benchmarks
      Maintainers: nomaintainer
      Description: tool for measuring webserver performance
      Long Description: httperf is a tool for measuring web server performance. It provides a flexible facility for generating various HTTP workloads and for measuring server performance. The focus of httperf is not on implementing one particular benchmark but on providing a robust, high-performance tool that facilitates the construction of both micro- and macro-level benchmarks. The three distinguishing characteristics of httperf are its robustness, which includes the ability to generate and sustain server overload, support for the HTTP/1.1 protocol, and its extensibility to new workload generators and performance measurements.

      ---> Verifying checksum for httperf
      ---> Extracting httperf
      ---> Configuring httperf
      ---> Building httperf with target all
      ---> Staging httperf into destroot
      ---> Installing httperf
    - Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using httperf with these commands:

      % apropos httperf
      % which httperf
      % locate httperf
