Hi,

Thank you for replying.
I knew of Apache Benchmark, but I want to learn how to make something similar
myself.That is why I've asked.
How would you design such a tool ?

Take a look at HTTPD::Bench::ApacheBench. I've never used it so I can't say if it really is up to the task. Alternativelly, you can make the requests yourself using LWP. Since you only care to check is the response is 200 OK, there is no overhead in parsing the response.	[reply]
