Exchange Load Generator / "Swordfish" Released

Very cool news from Microsoft on Friday: they've released the production version of the Exchange Load Generator (LoadGen) tool, formerly codenamed "Swordfish". There are 32-bit and 64-bit versions available, both of which include documentation. LoadGen is a major change from the older LoadSim tool, in that it's tailored to better reflect actual performance of Exchange 2007 + Outlook 2003/2007. Kudos to Jeff Mealiffe and his team at Microsoft for this release (and thanks to Jessie Zhu, who helped me figure out how to effectively use it!) Look for more on LoadGen in this week's Exchange UPDATE newsletter.
