[thelist] Stress-testing a web server

OK, here's my question:

We're at the moment migrating an intranet site from one server to the other.
Before making the final jump, I'd really love to know if the server can
handle the stress.

A few months ago we tried migrating but had to go backwards, because the
production server crashed under the stress.

Anyone knows of tools to test a server? I don't imagine that all one can do
is put up a false internal DDoS attack ;-)

Maybe something like a software that would make a hundred queries at the
same time...

TIA
