    -S              Do not show confidence estimators and warnings.
    -g filename     Output collected data to gnuplot format file.
    -e filename     Output CSV file with percentages served
    -r              Don't exit on socket receive errors.
    -h              Display usage information (this message)

    -f protocol     Specify SSL/TLS protocol (SSL2, SSL3, TLS1, or ALL)

• 吞吐率（Requests per second）
  服务器并发处理能力的量化描述，单位是reqs/s，指的是在某个并发用户数下单位时间内处理的请求数。某个并发用户数下单位时间内能处理的最大请求数，称之为最大吞吐率。
  note：吞吐率是基于并发用户数的。这句话代表了两个含义：
  a、吞吐率和并发用户数相关
  b、不同的并发用户数下，吞吐率一般是不同的
  计算公式：总请求数/处理完成这些请求数所花费的时间，即

Request per second=Complete requests/Time taken for tests

• 并发连接数（The number of concurrent connections）
  并发连接数指的是某个时刻服务器所接受的请求数目，简单的讲，就是一个会话。

• 并发用户数（Concurrency Level）
  要注意区分这个概念和并发连接数之间的区别，一个用户可能同时会产生多个会话，也即连接数。在HTTP/1.1下，IE7支持两个并发连接，IE8支持6个并发连接，FireFox3支持4个并发连接，所以相应的，我们的并发用户数就得除以这个基数。

• 用户平均请求等待时间（Time per request）
  计算公式：处理完成所有请求数所花费的时间/（总请求数/并发用户数），即：
  Time per request=Time taken for tests/（Complete requests/Concurrency Level）

• 服务器平均请求等待时间（Time per request:across all concurrent requests）

  下面是对慕课网首页 https://www.imooc.com/ 做的一个简单的测试

ab -c 10 -n 100 https://www.imooc.com/
  -c concurrency  Number of multiple requests to make   表示并发用户数为10
  -t timelimit    Seconds to max. wait for responses    表示请求总数为100

$ ab -c 10 -n 100 https://www.imooc.com/
