[jdev] [GSoC] XMPP servers performance comparator (was: Re: Teasers)

[Mickaël Rémond]

Hello,

We have been measuring performance on a regular basis with Tsung. It is not extremely easy to use but does the job. It was mostly designed for own use, so that explains that it could be a bit rough around the edges.

I am not sure what is the goal of the project but this is another option for performance testing and measurement. 

I hope this helps,
