Im trying to Send bunch of POST request to a server . i need to send maximum amount of possible requests for a second to sever and i have used CURL in linux a few tools like axios and nodejs but they are just not what im seeking for . the response time is high , used IP address to circumvent NS-LOOKUP time but there is still a TCP connection time that repeat for every packet and kinda an overhead .
The other problem im facing is that using CURL in a loop i see its doesn't iterate that fast seems like it can't do them pararel and needs one to complete to go for the next . so i used & and wait syntax in my bash script file but still not that efficient plus i know how to use nohup
How can i keep my connections alive to solve that TCP Connection overHead? or is there any tool for this purpose out there? How can i send like 1000 or more requests at once … i dont care about the the respond i just need to get my request to the server in a certain time faster than any one else.

You can use Apache ab to load test your server. Use it like this:
This will command for example will fire up 350 simultaneous connections until 20 thousand requests are met.
