6 You may be able to use socat and a bit of shell to do what you want:
7
8 http_request=#Whatever you need to request your stream
9 socat_remote_address=#Something like TCP:your_server:80
10 stress_level=10
11 i=0
12 while [ "$i" -lt "$stress_level" ]; do
13 socat "$socat_remote_address" << ENDREQUEST > /dev/null &
14 $http_request
15 ENDREQUEST
16 done
