Specify log file argument to log in current directory, avoid situation like https://github.com/phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/issues/77

pts/apache-siege-1.0.3   [View Source]   Fri, 31 May 2019 18:09:47 GMT
Add expat as possible external dependency - https://github.com/phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/issues/82

pts/apache-siege-1.0.2   [View Source]   Sun, 29 Jul 2018 18:57:33 GMT
Don't spew so much unneeded information to the log file as was getting 100MB+ logs with intensive tests.

pts/apache-siege-1.0.1   [View Source]   Sun, 29 Jul 2018 18:08:19 GMT
Ensure siege.config is generated.

pts/apache-siege-1.0.0   [View Source]   Sun, 29 Jul 2018 17:22:54 GMT
Add an additional Apache HTTPD benchmark profile, this one allows multi-threaded testing using Siege.

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Apache Siege 2.4.62 - Concurrent Users: 50) has an average run-time of 3 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.
