This update is rather unusual, as it contains a major new feature. Rather than wait until the next release, we decided to release French language support as a patch in order to get it into everyone’s hands as soon as possible. If you’re one of our French speaking customers please let us know how you like being able to use the program in your language of choice. (Note: To get French language support you’ll need to download and run the installer again, as it includes too many changes to be delivered through the automatic update feature.)

Also included in this update are 7 minor bug fixes in the Analyzer and Load Tester modules. Complete instructions are available on how to install the upgrade, but remember, this is for 3.5 licenses only!  Installing this update with a license that is not for version 3.5 will render your software inoperable.

Durham, N.C. — Simulating very large numbers of users accessing a website just got much easier with the release of the Instant Load Engine™ from Web Performance, Inc. Companies that rely on their websites to handle thousands of customers at a time know the value of testing to insure their site’s performance and reliability, but the testing process often incurs long delays as the testing software is installed on up to hundreds of computers. For example, generating 50,000 simultaneous users could require anywhere from 40 to 100 computers to be individually configured and calibrated.

Durham, NC - The Caisse Nationale d’Asurance Vieillesse (CNAV) is the French-equivalent of the Social Security Administration in the US, responsible for managing millions of pensions.
