title: Simulation of a DoS attack with Apache JMeter
body: <p>i want to use the tool Apache JMeter in order to make an http flood in a website that i have designed in Visual Studio 2017. My question is, if i start running the website and in the same time start the http flood, is it "safe" for my PC? I mean, is it possible to cause a damage because of the resource consumption? Or is it depended from the number of threads i'll use at the JMeter script parameters?
  Thank you.</p>
