[\fI\,OPTIONS\/\fR]... [\fI\,URI\/\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
benchmarking tool for HTTP/2 and SPDY server
.TP
<URI>
Specify  URI to  access.   Multiple  URIs can  be
specified.  URIs are used  in this order for each
client.   All URIs  are used,  then first  URI is
used and  then 2nd URI,  and so on.   The scheme,
host and port in the subsequent URIs, if present,
are  ignored.  Those  in the  first URI  are used
solely.
.SH OPTIONS
.HP
\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-requests=\fR<N> Number of requests. Default: 1
.TP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-clients=\fR<N>
Number of concurrent clients. Default: 1
.TP
\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-threads=\fR<N>
Number of native threads. Default: 1
.TP
\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-input\-file=\fR<FILE>
Path of  a file with multiple  URIs are seperated
by EOLs.   This option will disable  URIs getting
from command\-line.   If '\-'  is given  as <FILE>,
URIs will be  read from stdin.  URIs  are used in
this order  for each client.  All  URIs are used,
then first URI  is used and then 2nd  URI, and so
on.  The scheme, host  and port in the subsequent
URIs,  if present,  are  ignored.   Those in  the
first URI are used solely.
.TP
\fB\-m\fR, \fB\-\-max\-concurrent\-streams=\fR(auto|<N>)
Max concurrent streams to  issue per session.  If
"auto"  is given,  the  number of  given URIs  is
used.  Default: auto
.TP
\fB\-w\fR, \fB\-\-window\-bits=\fR<N>
Sets  the stream  level  initial  window size  to
(2**<N>)\-1.  For SPDY, 2**<N> is used instead.
.TP
\fB\-W\fR, \fB\-\-connection\-window\-bits=\fR<N>
Sets the connection level  initial window size to
(2**<N>)\-1.  For  SPDY, if  <N> is  strictly less
than  16,  this  option  is  ignored.   Otherwise
2**<N> is used for SPDY.
.TP
\fB\-H\fR, \fB\-\-header=\fR<HEADER>
Add/Override a header to the requests.
.TP
\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-no\-tls\-proto=\fR<PROTOID>
Specify  ALPN identifier  of the  protocol to  be
used  when accessing  http  URI without  SSL/TLS.
Available protocols: spdy/2, spdy/3, spdy/3.1 and
h2c\-14
Default: h2c\-14
.TP
\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR
Output debug information.
.TP
\fB\-\-version\fR
Display version information and exit.
.TP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
Display this help and exit.
