Thanks! JMeter is good for load testing; are there any tools to
automatically or semi-automatically generate a JMeter test plan that
approximates what a real user with a real browser would do?

JCrawler is automatic, but chokes on large picture files (JCrawler
running on my desktop runs out of memory while the node server on my
phone is moderately loaded).

I guess you could describe what I'm looking for as a "website lint"
tool.  YSlow did part of what I want, in checking for Expires headers
and noting that nothing was gzipped.  Can anyone recommend any tools
similar to YSlow?
