Well, Loadrunner costs thousands and thousands of dollar for each computer you want to simulate. The advantage is that it also has some nice reporting and statistical analysis tools. WebTest is free, you can use some other Perl modules to do any stat analysis, but you will have a week or so work to do. I've done something similar with Perl for a UNIX app. that worked really well and then I used the GD graphing module and my own statistical routines (just mean, max, ..) Doing concurrent things with Perl is sometimes difficult because fork() isn't normally built in, so you will need to get around that with shell scripts or compile Perl with multithreading, ...
