A Go-based command-line HTTP benchmark tool that floods a target URL with concurrent requests to test server bandwidth and performance. It supports random User-Agents, custom headers, referers, POST bodies, multiple target IPs, and randomized X-Forwarded-For/X-Real-IP headers.

Use cases

• load test my web server bandwidth
• benchmark a website with concurrent http requests
• stress test server with custom headers
• test website performance from command line
• send concurrent requests to multiple target ips
• measure how much traffic my server can handle

When to choose

• you need a simple, single-binary CLI to saturate server bandwidth with configurable concurrency
• you want randomized headers, User-Agents, and X-Forwarded-For per request
• you need to target specific IPs behind a domain

When to avoid

• you need detailed latency percentiles and metrics reporting (use hey, wrk, or k6 instead)
• you want a GUI or distributed load testing
• you cannot legally authorize testing against the target server - misuse may be illegal
