net-benchmark started as a DNS benchmarking tool — 14,000+ installs across 100+ countries. v0.5.0 adds a full HTTP suite under the same CLI. Per request: DNS→TCP→TLS→TTFB→TTLB breakdown, security header audit, CDN fingerprinting, TLS capture, redirect chain timing, HTTP/2 downgrade detection, cache analysis. pip install net-benchmark SSL checking in v0.6.0. CLI stays free forever Also building buildtools.net — dashboards, alerts and multi-region benchmarking powered by the same engine.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built net-benchmark after noticing my API calls were consistently slower than expected — DNS was the hidden culprit. The DNS tool grew to 14,000+ installs across 100+ countries with zero marketing. That traction gave me confidence to build the HTTP suite in v0.5.0. Install: pip install net-benchmark Example commands: net-benchmark dns benchmark --resolvers "Cloudflare,Google" --doh --warmup-fast net-benchmark dns benchmark --resolvers "Cloudflare,Quad9" --dot --dnssec-validate net-benchmark http benchmark --use-defaults net-benchmark http compare api.example.com api2.example.com SSL certificate checking is next in v0.6.0. CLI stays free forever. Happy to answer questions — especially from anyone running secure DNS or HTTP checks in their pipelines.
