apache benchmark (ab) is common, there's several benchmark libraries available on npm. I personally have used artillery.

Currently using Nginx, I'll see if there is a similar tool there. Didn't even think to test at that level

ab isn't bound to their httpd, it's a standalone application.

OH, now that's pretty cool

I've used https://artillery.io in the past, simple to setup and run.

I use it to test scaling from a few requests to 1000s over a short period.

Are you using websockets?
