Executing Multiple Threads to Create a Load

  • SQLQueryStress

  • C:\>FOR /?

    C:\>FOR /L %a IN (1,1,10) DO start sqlcmd -S . -i contactquery.sql -U Redgate -P x

  • I use SQLQueryStress too, have always found it useful to run a simple load test to reveal issues. Getting the workload right in terms of parameters is the hard part.

  • Thanks, lots of ways to do this.

    I have tended to quickly mock things up for demos and short tests with a few CMD files. It's lightweight, nothing to install or find, and works.

    I've used SQLQueryStress, and it's fine as well.

  • Thanks for the pointer for the tool I wasn't aware of Steve. I like the ability to put your queries in different windows (with different connections even), and some other features. And since I have the source code I can extend/improve to my liking.
