We were also hitting the limits of ab, but instead of hacking Apache
sources we've ended up writing our own benchmark tool. With it we were able
to get up to 18k req/sec from Apache 2.2 (serving static content through a
custom module). Moreover, the tool is not bound to HTTP and can be used to
benchmark other TCP servers as well. Should you find it useful, you can
get it at http://neosystem.cz/tools/tst-0.7.tar.gz .
