+.SH NAME
+\fBidleconn \fP- tool for opening any number of idle connections
+\fB
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.fam C
+ \fBidleconn\fP <server> <port> <numidle>

+.fam T

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBidleconn\fP is part of httperf suite and is useful to simulate a large number
+of concurrent and idle connections. It can establish a set of persistent
+connections, each of which generated periodic requests to the server. The
+effect is that at all times, some of the connections were active while the
+rest were idle, and these active and idle connection sets kept changing with
+time. (This paragraph was extracted and adapted from the article "Scalability
+of Linux Event-Dispatch Mechanisms" (HPL-2000-174), written by Abhishek
+Chandra and David Mosberger).
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B
+server
+IP of the server to connect.
+.TP
+.B
+port
+Port used by server.
+.TP
+.B
+numidle
+Number of idle process to be generated.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+This is a simple example how to use \fBidleconn\fP:
+.PP
+.nf
+.fam C
+    $ ./idleconn 192.168.1.1 80 100
+
+.fam T
+.fi
+It would open and maintain 100 idle connections to a web server, listening on
+port 80, using the IP address 192.168.1.1.
