title: What is the best way to load test a web application running on an IIS 6 server?
body: <p>I am wanting to load test a web based application that we are hosting on an IIS server (Windows 2003, IIS 6, PHP 5.2.0, MySQL 5.0.22).</p>
  
  <p>What are the best tools for:</p>
  
  <p><strong>a)</strong> load testing <br>
  <strong>b)</strong> catching bottlenecks <br>
  <strong>c)</strong> catching memory leaks</p>
  
  <p>Anything else I should be looking for?</p>

  <p>UPDATE:</p>
  
  <p>I found that MS Web App Stress tool was the best in my case as I could record header information and therefore the data that my Flash components were sending to some PHP pages that connect to the database. Selenium didn't record this for me. BrowserMob looks like a good service but again Selenium was not able to capture Flash in the same way as MSWAS.</p>
