I'm trying to setup a stress/load test using the WCAT toolkit included in the IIS Resources. Using LogParser, I've processed a UBR file with configuration. It looks something like this: [Configuration] NumClientMachines: 1 # number of distinct client machines to use NumClientThreads: 100 # number of threads per mach...
The documentation provides a succinct example, and one that looks like it's missing a hop/pair anyway.

Error accepting remote connectio...

Looks like a problem with the HttpContext? [Nul...
