how to use parallel to do a wget at a steady rate spread out over an hour

[Deepa Hegde (deepahe)]

Hello,

I am trying to measure the performance of active authentication for my web server. For this, I send simultaneous HTTP GET requests using wget.  Something like :

Seq 1 30 | parallel –q –j0 wget —no-check-certificate --max-redirects=0 —http-user=tom —http-password=abcdefhi  “https://192.168.1.2:885/x.auth?id={}”

This is bursty … I would like to do 20000 spread out over 1 hour.  How do I achieve this using parallel ? 

Thanks,

Deepa.
