I need to test the performance of application running on localhost as if it were in the online environment. I mean the performance test conducted by the network traffic simulation, limited bandwidth simulation, or other parameter as if it were online.

Could Apache Ab do the simulation?

We've used Charles and Firefox Throttle in the past to simulate slow networks.
