DO NOT REPLY [Bug 50644] New: Add support for maximum number of requests per Keep-Alive connection to apachebench

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50644

           Summary: Add support for maximum number of requests per
                    Keep-Alive connection to apachebench
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.17
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: support
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: johneagl@yahoo-inc.com


Apache bench (ab) currently doesn't allow a limit on the number of requests per
keep-alive tcp connection. The only options are a new connection per request,
or c connections over which all n requests are sent (for n/c requests per
connection). Unfortunately this does not mirror real-world traffic, as most
HTTP clients (browsers) will make ~4 requests per tcp connection.

Patch to enable limiting the number of requests per keep-alive connection

Second patch to add user-configurable limit on number of requests per
connection. Obsoletes prior patch as prior patch had different comment style
and contained a bugfix unrelated to this bug.

Patch to enable limiting the number of requests per keep-alive connection

Attached is a patch to add a flag to apachebench to allow the specification of
the number of requests per keep-alive connection to better simulate real-world
clients.

(From update of attachment 26542)
Obsoleting patch -- comments do not match style and an additional bugfix is
present (to limit number of spurious requests).

With a large number of requests, this makes my machine run out of ports because
too many connections are in TIME_WAIT:

ab -n 100000 -c 40 -k -m 2  http://localhost/
This is ApacheBench, Version 2.3 <$Revision: 1125877 $>
Copyright 1996 Adam Twiss, Zeus Technology Ltd, http://www.zeustech.net/
Licensed to The Apache Software Foundation, http://www.apache.org/

Benchmarking localhost (be patient)
Completed 10000 requests
Completed 20000 requests
Completed 30000 requests
Completed 40000 requests
Completed 50000 requests

Test aborted after 10 failures

apr_socket_connect(): Cannot assign requested address (99)
Total of 56404 requests completed


The problem probably appears because now ab closes the connections first while
without that option, httpd closes the connections first.
