Well, It seems that terra.com.br's firewall and/or web server's security mechanisms got you... You can't blame them, they likely have reasonably good protections against DOS attacks and you probably forgot to tell them to turn these off so you could "test" their site... LOL... Seriously, I hope you at least limited the ab to a *very* small number of attempts and minimal bandwidth...
For testing your own site, this is exactly what you don't want to happen. You want load testing programs to see as much content as possible and you want them to mimic the live traffic as realistically as possible. Sadly, this is pretty hard to achieve. When testing web2py apps, I've had better results from siege than ab. Regards, Ales On Saturday, April 6, 2013 11:40:12 PM UTC+2, Tito Garrido wrote: > > Got it...
