Dunwich (Work In Progress)
A data-centre focused load tester for saturating high-throughput networks. On 20G+ networks, standard tools such as iperf can become CPU bound. Dunwich aims to leverage the concurrent nature of Go to bypass these limitations.
NOT IN A FUNCTIONAL STATE YET
Why "Dunwich"?
Most load testing apps simulate traffic using generated content of uniform size. Dunwich, on the other hands, aim to offer a more realistic load simulation by sharing paragraphs of H.P. Lovecraft's work The Dunwich Horror (pulled from Project Gutenberg).
