Re: [ITP] httperf-0.9.0

For your convenience attached the cygport file for building this
package. It would have taken care of all the above aspects.

Thanks for the plug. :-) But one point:


DESCRIPTION="Httperf is a tool for measuring web server performance. It provides a flexible facility
for generating various HTTP workloads and for measuring server performance. The focus of
httperf is not on implementing one particular benchmark but on providing a robust,
high-performance tool that facilitates the construction of both micro- and macro-level
benchmarks. The three distinguishing characteristics of httperf are its robustness,
which includes the ability to generate and sustain server overload, support for the
HTTP/1.1 and SSL protocols, and its extensibility to new workload generators and p
erformance measurements."

DESCRIPTION is meant to be a short one-liner (closer to sdesc: and ldesc:), as it is shown in cygport info.
