Does siege support cookies?
Netscape cookie support was added to siege-2.00; it does not support RFC 2965 cookies. This feature was “Microsofted” in that it shipped with a known issue: siege ignores path information and returns cookies based on server and domain. All cookies will be discarded after the run, they are not stored locally on disk. Cookies will be expired during the run as per the Netscape expire directive. The primary concern with regard to cookie support was to maintain state with the server. Siege supports that feature nicely.
