RE: Query random paths?

[Val S. <Val...@no...>]

I'm not an expert on curl-loader and I have not used the url templates yet. The way I do it is literally generate all the urls in the urls section and set FETCH_PROBABILITY on each url to a low value, e.g 2., so it looks like this:

########### GENERAL SECTION ################################

BATCH_NAME = random-picked-urls
CLIENTS_NUM_MAX = 35
INTERFACE = eth1
NETMASK = 255.255.0.0
IP_ADDR_MIN = 10.2.1.2
IP_ADDR_MAX = 10.2.1.201
CYCLES_NUM = -1
URLS_NUM = 5000

########### URL SECTION ####################################

URL = http://www.XYZ.NET/
URL_SHORT_NAME = "badurl1"
REQUEST_TYPE = GET
TIMER_URL_COMPLETION = 0
TIMER_AFTER_URL_SLEEP = 0
FETCH_PROBABILITY = 2
FETCH_PROBABILITY_ONCE = 0

URL = http://www.XYZ1.NET/
URL_SHORT_NAME = "badurl2"
REQUEST_TYPE = GET
TIMER_URL_COMPLETION = 0
TIMER_AFTER_URL_SLEEP = 0
FETCH_PROBABILITY = 2
FETCH_PROBABILITY_ONCE = 0
