💅 BOMBARDMENT(1) 💅

okay bestie, buckle up, because this one's a little siege-adjacent legend and her name is bombardment ✨ (yes, that's the manual name, we're literally doing BOMBARDMENT(1), iconic, no notes 🎀)

🌸 NAME 🌸

bombardment — run siege with an ever-increasing number of users 🔥

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bombardment [urlfile] [clients] [increment] [trials] [delay]
bombardment urls.txt 5 10 20 1

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so bombardment is part of the siege distribution, and her whole vibe is escalation 💅

she calls siege with an initial number of clients. then, the second that run finishes, she immediately calls siege again — but with that number of clients plus the increment. and she keeps doing it, over and over, the number of times you specified in the fourth argument. it's giving glow-up montage, it's giving "the way she just keeps adding more users" 😭🔥

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • urlfile — the name of the file holding one or more URLs for siege to test. your lil hit list 💖
  • clients — the initial number of clients used on the first run. the starting lineup 🫶
  • increment — how many clients get added to each ensuing run. she grows 🌱
  • trials — the number of times to run siege. how many rounds, bestie ⭐
  • delay — the amount of time, in seconds, that each client waits between requests. heads up: the siege default is overridden by bombardment here, so don't go assuming the usual default, fr fr 🙈
