Re: What happened to rpgenerationx.com?

Brad,

Just so we're comparing apples to apples, I have another suggestion.
Download a copy of the JMeter stress test tool from www.apache.org to do the
test.  JMeter instantiates client Threads rather than Jobs, and if I
understand correctly measures the time between the request and the first
byte received in order to strip network time from the equation.

Also remember that you're hitting a model 170-2290.  It doesn't take much to
drive the CPU utilization to the wall.  Ten users with no delay will peg my
CPU at +++ utilization.  To be accurate, your tests need to let my CPU
breath, as mine did.
