Hello, this is Robot X - I would like to crawl and blast your website with my illegitimate traffic. And we spend time chatting about the differences between known and unknown load caused by semi-intelligent automated agents: BOTS! We cover a little bit of summertime news, the first PerfBytes radio play and plenty of details on how to include bot traffic in your workload profiles.
