The tool is "ab", included with any Apache distribution ( including
Windows). Hello and HelloW are included with TC 3.3 - in
src/examples/WEB-INF/classes.
I'll add few more simple servlets to test other aspects of a servlet
container ( session processing, parameters, request dispatching ).

I would be very curious to hear some numbers. I'll try to reorganize the
file, so we can include data for other platforms ( I wanted to check the
evolution of tomcat on my machine )

Sorry about that, there are just raw data without too much info.
> Warm: 1000 -> run 1000 requests before the test ( to make sure
everything is in memory )
> Test: 10000 -> the test consist of 10000 requests
> Concurent: 1 20 40 80 -> I tried with 1, 20, 40, 80
"concurent" connections ( ab -c xx ) ( and up to 340 for tomcat 3.3, 3.2
can go that far on my machine )
> RPS AVG MAX
> 20: 134 150 701
^ 20 concurent connections
^ Equivalent requests per second, as reported by "ab" ( by
dividing the number of requests by total time )
^ Average response time for a request
^ Maximum response time for a request
