[Deploying Sakai] Load Testing CLE

[Chris Kretler]

Hi Warwick,

There have been a number of efforts to openly load test sakai.  Some of
them used The Grinder:

https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/PERF/Community+Performance+Testing+Resources

https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/sakaigrinder/trunk/

Others have used jmeter:

https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/QA/Custom+Test+in+10+Minutes

I haven't touched the grinder scripts since 2009, so they would likely
require updating before running.

You could also look into leveraging browsermob to execute Selenium scripts
at large scale:

This does cost money, but the selenium scripts are probably the easiest to
create, assuming they need to be created from scratch.

Regards,
Chris
