1. Why would you use a mobile webserver? well you know....you go somewhere and suddenly decide to set a lan party or whatever - just pull out your stick...
2. What´s this test about?
It´s about memory and process usagein direct comparison while beeing flooded...
3. Who would flood your mobile webserver? ok srsly STFU.
Alright here are the server specs:
-amd x2 3800@2,4ghz
-4 gigs of ddr2-800 ram(Oc @1066)
-a western digital HD(7200rpm, WD6400AAKS)
-a standard Realtek PCIe NIC, connected with 100Mbps
Bot and Server are in the same Network linked by a powerful switch(so no limit here)
Flood-Settings:
I used LOIC performing TCP Requests, 80 Threads at quite a fast rate; I patched the windows limitation on open connections(see TCP-Z)
Apache(XAMPP): See for yourself:
LightTPD(Lighty2Go):
So who wins? Guess what...LightTPD
!This result only applies for a standard TCP-Flood, but still....I even got the Apache to grab up to 1,1GB of RAM with only one Attacker.....amazing what 3-5 could do....
