I'm developing some milters. I created two tools to
benchmark and test my milters:

  * milter-test-server:
    http://milter-manager.sourceforge.net/reference/milter-test-server.html

    It talks milter protocol. It means that you don't need
    Postfix, you just need milter.

    It just does one milter session and reports elapsed
    time.

  * milter-performance-check:
    
http://milter-manager.sourceforge.net/reference/milter-performance-check.html

    It talks SMTP. You can measure elapsed time for
    Postfix + milter.

    It sends multiple mails and reports performance
    statistics. See the above URL for details.

See the following URL how to install these tools:
  http://milter-manager.sourceforge.net/reference/install-to.html
