+This stress test program is for debugging threading issues with the ISAPI
+module.
+
+2 ways to use it:
+
+1: test any php script file on multiple threads
+2: run the php test scripts bundled with the source code
+
+
+
+GLOBAL SETTINGS
+===============
+
+If you need to set special environement variables, in addition to your
+regular environment, create a file that contains them, one setting per line:
+
+MY_ENV_VAR=XXXXXXXX
+
+This can be used to simulate ISAPI environment variables if need be.
+
+By default, stress test uses 10 threads. To change this, change the define
+NUM_THREADS in stresstest.cpp.
+
+
+
+1: Test any php script file on multiple threads
+===============================================
+
+Create a file that contains a list of php script files, one per line. If
+you need to provide input, place the GET data, or Query String, after the
+filename. File contents would look like:
+
+e:\inetpub\pages\index.php
+e:\inetpub\pages\info.php
+e:\inetpub\pages\test.php a=1&b=2
+
+Run: stresstest L files.txt
+
+
+
+2: Run the php test scripts bundled with the source code
+========================================================
+
+supply the path to the parent of the "tests" directory (expect a couple
+long pauses for a couple of the larger tests)
+
+Run: stresstest T c:\php5-source
+
+
+
+TODO:
+
+* Make more options configurable: number of threads, iterations, etc.
+* Improve stdout output to make it more useful
+* Implement support for SKIPIF
+* Improve speed of CompareFile function (too slow on big files).
