What are the limitations of SPECweb99_SSL?
SPECweb99_SSL is a standardized benchmark, which means that it is an abstraction of the real world. For example, SPECweb99_SSL does not attempt to model latency associated with obtaining data across a wide-area network (WAN) such as the Internet. This kind of behavior is difficult to simulate at this stage, since it requires elaborate hardware and software.
