title: Apache benchmark issue: An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used. (windows)
body: <p>I want to benchmark my site and I found out that apache can do that for me with quite good statistics but unfortunately I fail. What I do is in my cmd prompt I navigate to <code>apache\bin</code> ( I'm on windows thus \ ) and run the following</p>
  
  <pre><code>ab -n 1000 -c 5 http://localhost/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p> What I get is: </p>
  
  <pre><code>This is ApacheBench, Version 2.3 &lt;$Revision: 1178079 $&gt;

  Benchmarking localhost (be patient)
  bind: An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.   (730047)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Since I'm not really an expert I don't really know where to go from here.. Any advice?</p>
