+wrk (HTTP benchmarking tool)
+
+A modern HTTP benchmarking tool capable of generating significant load when run
+on a single multi-core CPU. It combines a multithreaded design with scalable
+event notification systems such as epoll and kqueue.
+
+An optional LuaJIT script can perform HTTP request generation, response
+processing, and custom reporting.
+
+Note: Lua and LuaJIT are not required here; wrk is statically-linked against
+the LuaJIT version bundled in the upstream tarball.
