Hi Paul, Here is what has been recommended as far as benchmarking tools. Performix is the premier benchmarking tool, and it's produced by Rational software. The latest version of this is called Darwin, although I'm not sure that this is on general release yet. For more info, see: http://www.rational.com http://www.rational.com/products/asq/lst.html Also recommended are the following: SQA Team Test and SQA Robot are very popular: http://www.rational.com Mercury Interactive, on the high end: http://www.merc-int.com/ Hope this helps.
