Ask YC: Software for simulating I/O, memory use, processor (Windows)

[nanexcool]

We just got a couple of servers with Windows Server 2003 Standard. I was asked to do some stress testing on them for a couple of days, testing mainly how the server works under heavy load.

Anyone know of a program that would let me test some of the server capabilities and give a simple result afterwards?

Microsoft has this page on stress testing web applications: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/231282.
