Thrash my site

[Peter Morris [Droopy eyes software]]

Note: "Thrash" not "Trash"

I've developed a website, the purpose of writing this site was to test a
Model Driven Architecture type approach.
http://www.howtodothings.com

I'm not sure how well this approach stands up to high-demand. I thought I'd
ask in here if as many people as possible could just flick through some
categories, pull up some articles, etc.

Now that I think of it though this is a bit of a crappy way to test it, no
co-ordination of the demand. In which case, what is a good way to stress
test a website?

Thanks

Try using http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/
Its a good tool for testing websites, it requires java runtime environment
since its written in java, but it can test ASP pages just fine.

If you're using IIS5.x, you can use WAST
( Web Application Stress Tool ) :

If you're using IIS 6.0, you can use the
Web Capacity Analysis Tool Version 5.2,
included in the IIS 6.0 Resource Kit:

Both tools do a bangup job of simulating multiple
browsers requesting pages from a web site
