A simple Node.js script to test Cloudant geo queries for load and/or coverage. `npm install superagent` then `node geotest.js`

geotest.js

var request = require('superagent');

// Replace these 3 variables with your own information
// Note: The database must be world readable
const CLOUDANT_ACCOUNT = 'opendata';
const CLOUDANT_DB = 'pois';
const GEO_INDEX = '_design/idx/_geo/spatial';

for (var index = 0; index < 500; index++) {
  runQuery(index)
}

function runQuery(idx) {
  const t = new Date();
  console.log("here's the start time on run " + idx + ": "+t.toISOString());

  var rlat = (Math.random() * 180) - 90; // cover the globe
  // var rlat = (Math.random() * 18) +31; // cover only the US
  var rlon = (Math.random() * 360) - 180; // cover the globe
  // var rlon = (Math.random() * 51) - 123;  // var rrad = Math.floor(100*(Math.random() * 8) - 2); // cover only the US
  var rrad = Math.floor(10000*((Math.random() * 5) + 7)); // 7000 to 12000 meters

  url += '/'+CLOUDANT_DB+'/'+GEO_INDEX;
  url += '?limit=200&relation=contains&lat='+rlat+'&lon='+rlon+'&radius='+rrad;
  request
    .get(url)
    .set('Accept', 'application/json')
    .end(function (err, res) {
