As the title implies, I would like to be able to simulate traffic to a collection of webpages that I have created for loadbalancing and bottleneck issues. I would like to mimic typical HTTP requests relative to the upload/download speed of the user. Furthermore, I would like to be able to perform extreme tests assuming a certain amount of storage and bandwidth on a server(s).
How I should go about doing this?
Look at Apache Flood: hhttp://httpd.apache.org/test/flood/
