1、命令格式
ab命令放在apache目录bin目录下面，使用方法如下
./ab -n 3000 -c 3000 http://www.test.com/
其中-n代表每次并发量，-c代表总共发送的数量
2、测试结果分析
[root@Svr107 bin]# ./ab -n 3000 -c 3000 http://www.test.com/

3、如果用ab访问的是他本机上的web服务器，使用127.0.0.1或者是web服务器上的网卡IP地址，这个是不走网络设备的，可以忽略网络消耗
4、ab使用的一些问题
a、ab命令在一般系统上面做测试时候，一般并发不能超过1024个，其实是因为因为系统限制每个进程打开的最大文件数为1024，可以用ulimit -a来查看
open files (-n) 65536 ##这个我系统已经修改过
b、-n 可以指定最大请求数，但是不能超过50000个
c、-v n 当n>=2 时，可以显示发送的http请求头，和响应的http头及内容,压力测试时不要这么做
[root@Svr107 bin]# ./ab -n 1 -c 1 -v 2 http://www.test.com/

在做压力测试的时候，一般情况下压力测试客户端接收到的数据量一定会远大于发送出去的数据量
