If you're that much willing to have a good concurrent load simulator
client for postgresql, my take is for you to test tsung. This surely
will take less time than rewriting it with result I'd suspect less
efficient than the 20+ years of research that came into Erlang design
and implementation :) http://tsung.erlang-projects.org/
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-admin/2008-12/msg00032.php
Your task will be to install erlang and tsung, then to write up a load
parameter XML script embedding your SQL requests as CDATA. You could
define more than one session and ask to mix what session each
simulated user will run (70% of this, 20% of that, 10% of the latter),
and give a thinktime between some requests, will get be respected on
average (with a grain of randomness).
Have fun,
