I need an experienced network / server specialist to simulate heavy traffic against a set of public competitor URLs so I can accurately compare their performance against ours. The goal is to discover each site’s maximum load capacity, observe when response times degrade, and note any vulnerability thresholds that appear during sustained pressure.

A solid grasp of packet analysis is essential, as I will be asking for raw capture files alongside high-level insights. You will also need proven techniques for safely bypassing basic rate-limit and anti-bot filters so the test reflects genuine peak-traffic conditions rather than being blocked at the edge.

What I expect from you
• A brief plan outlining your tooling (e.g., Wireshark, hping3, JMeter, or similar cloud-based generators) and the safeguards you put in place to avoid collateral impact.
• Controlled stress tests executed during an agreed-upon window, with live monitoring so we can pause if anomalies appear.
• A concise report detailing throughput achieved, latency curves, error rates, and any points where the target site’s defences triggered. Include the packet-level evidence that supports each conclusion.
• Recommendations on how our own infrastructure should respond if we were to face the same traffic profile.

Please send a short message first describing your most relevant project where you combined packet inspection with rate-limit bypass or evasion. After we align on the approach, you may place your bid.
