Patent ID: 7844692

Claim:
A processor-implemented method of analyzing a resource leak on a first Web server using a multiplier, comprising: receiving, at the first Web server, a first hyper-text transfer protocol (HTTP) request message from a client, the first HTTP request message comprising an identifier of an information component stored on the first Web server, wherein the first Web server generates a reply to the first HTTP request message, the reply comprising the information component, and sends the reply to the client; forwarding the first HTTP request message from the first Web server to the multiplier; generating at the multiplier multiple duplicate HTTP request messages for the information component in response to the receiving of the first request, wherein said multiple duplicate HTTP request messages multiply any existing resource leak thereby facilitating detection, diagnosis or analysis or combinations thereof of a resource leak on said first Web server, wherein each of the multiple duplicate HTTP request messages comprise the identifier of the information component; and analyzing, at the first Web server, effects of the multiple duplicate HTTP request messages.
