Heroku Benchpack

=================================

This is a repository which makes it easy to performance test an application deployed on Heroku.

[Apache Bench](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/ab.html), `ab` is the defacto tool for testing the performance of a web application, but many people do not have access to a high enough bandwidth connection to actually test the performance of applications deployed on clouds such as Heroku. This repository makes it easy to perform performance testing on Heroku applications. 

This repository makes use of vendored binaries on heroku, using the result of [Vulcan-Apache](https://github.com/wcdolphin/vulcan-apache), [Heroku-buildpack-vendorbinaries](https://github.com/wcdolphin/heroku-buildpack-vendorbinaries). Please consult me if any issues arise, and please contribute if you see any room for improvement!

To use, clone this repository and simply deploy to heroku and set the environment variables.

    $ git clone [email protected]:wcdolphin/heroku-benchpack.git

    $ herok apps:create

    $ git push heroku master

To actually bench a website, use the standard ab commandline options, prefixed by `heroku run`:

    $ heroku run "ab -n 10000 -c 1000 http://www.google.com/"

Result:

    This is ApacheBench, Version 2.3 <$Revision: 1430300 $>
