This is great stuff. Thanks!

Have you (or anyone else on the list) folks given any thought to modifying
the default content simulation models to reflect the 'modern' web sites?
Such as the fact that more web sites assume users have broadband and thus
more graphics as well as changing web presentation technologies, compared
the last time this was touched, probably > 5 years ago...

Regards,
Charlie

Hello,

    A new major public release of Web Polygraph is available after more
than a year-long stretch of private development snapshots.

    http://www.web-polygraph.org/downloads/

Major v3.0 change include:

  - HTTP pipelining support [1]
  - HTTP compression support [2]
  - HTTP Cookies support
  - GCC 4.x support
  - Apache License without publication restrictions [3]

Please see the change log[4] for a detailed list of improvements. Most
of the new features are documented. Upgrading from v2.8 should not cause
major problems as workload defaults remained the same.

This release may not be stable yet, but its isolated features have
received considerable amount of testing from customers with access to
development snapshots.

The Measurement Factory resources and development contracts with
FrontPorch, Network Appliance, WildBlue, and XipLink (among others) for
the past two years have made this release possible.

Enjoy,

Alex.
