Stress Testing a VPS
I have just ordered a VPS with THrust VPS, with option of installing various Linux and BSD installs. I am primarily looking to install various OS, Servers(Apache, Litespeed, Lighttpd, ngnix) etc. I was wondering is their any software/script which will help me stress the VPS, so that I can see what combination works better?

My personal favourite is stress, available under many distributions such as Debian

This tests low level CPU, disk I/O and memory, so not directly testing things such as web page response speed.█ GigaTux, Value Linux Hosting
