The rate must be a positive integer, +representing the number of connections to be made per +rate period. The maximum number of connections to be +made is given in \fI\%\-c\fP option. This rate will be +distributed among threads as evenly as possible. For +example, with \fI\%\-t\fP2 and \fI\%\-r\fP4, each thread gets 2 +connections per period. When the rate is 0, the program +will run as it normally does, creating connections at +whatever variable rate it wants.

Each script line is composed of two tab\-separated +fields. The first field represents the time offset from +the start of execution, expressed as a positive value of +milliseconds with microsecond resolution. The second +field represents the URI. This option will disable URIs +getting from command\-line. If \(aq\-\(aq is given as , +script lines will be read from stdin. Script lines are +used in order for each client. If \fI\%\-n\fP is given, it must +be less than or equal to the number of script lines, +larger values are clamped to the number of script lines. +If \fI\%\-n\fP is not given, the number of requests will default +to the number of script lines. The scheme, host and +port defined in the first URI are used solely. Values +contained in other URIs, if present, are ignored. +Definition of a base URI overrides all scheme, host or +port values. \fI\%\-\-timing\-script\-file\fP and \fI\%\-\-rps\fP are +mutually exclusive. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-B, \-\-base\-uri=(|unix:) +Specify URI from which the scheme, host and port will be +used for all requests. The base URI overrides all +values defined either at the command line or inside +input files. If argument starts with \(dqunix:\(dq, then the +rest of the argument will be treated as UNIX domain +socket path. The connection is made through that path +instead of TCP. In this case, scheme is inferred from +the first URI appeared in the command line or inside +input files as usual. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-alpn\-list= +Comma delimited list of ALPN protocol identifier sorted +in the order of preference. That means most desirable +protocol comes first.

More +columns may be added later. Rows are ordered by end\-of\- +response time when using one worker thread, but may +appear slightly out of order with multiple threads due +to buffering. Status code is \-1 for failed streams. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-qlog\-file\-base= +Enable qlog output and specify base file name for qlogs. +Qlog is emitted for each connection. For a given base +name \(dqbase\(dq, each output file name becomes +\(dqbase.M.N.sqlog\(dq where M is worker ID and N is client ID +(e.g. \(dqbase.0.3.sqlog\(dq). Only effective in QUIC runs. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-connect\-to=[:] +Host and port to connect instead of using the authority +in . +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-rps= +Specify request per second for each client. \fI\%\-\-rps\fP and +\fI\%\-\-timing\-script\-file\fP are mutually exclusive. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-groups= +Specify the supported groups. +.sp +Default: \fBX25519:P\-256:P\-384:P\-521\fP +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-no\-udp\-gso +Disable UDP GSO. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-max\-udp\-payload\-size= +Specify the maximum outgoing UDP datagram payload size. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-ktls +Enable ktls. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-v, \-\-verbose +Output debug information. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-\-version +Display version information and exit. +.UNINDENT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \-h, \-\-help +Display this help and exit. +.UNINDENT +.sp +The argument is an integer and an optional unit (e.g., 10K is +10 * 1024). Units are K, M and G (powers of 1024). +.sp +The argument is an integer and an optional unit (e.g., 1s +is 1 second and 500ms is 500 milliseconds). Units are h, m, s or ms +(hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds, respectively). If a unit +is omitted, a second is used as unit. +.SH OUTPUT +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B requests +.INDENT 7.0 +.TP +.B total +The number of requests h2load was instructed to make. +.TP +.B started +The number of requests h2load has started. +.TP +.B done +The number of requests completed. +.TP +.B succeeded +The number of requests completed successfully.
