I would suggest that http://curl-loader.sourceforge.net/ would be a good
one to start with. I was going to suggest Ixia's IxLoad, but that
requires Very Expensive Hardware from Ixia themselves. It's very good
(it should be at what they charge!) but the cost for a small test of
this type is likely prohibitive.

curl-loader actually positions itself as an alternative to IxLoad,
anyway.
