    Translate a cURL command created by Chrome's developer tools into a
    command for ``ab``, the ApacheBench HTTP benchmarking tool.

    Parameters
    ----------
    curl_cmd
        The string given to you by the "Copy to cURL" context action in
        Chrome's developer tools.
    num : int
        The number of requests ApacheBench should make in total
    cur : int
        The number of concurrent requests ApacheBench should make

    Note
    ----
    Not all headers play nice with ApacheBench, so ``headers_to_copy`` has
    been set to a reasonable default. Tweak this if you need something
    else in there.

@ahivert it doesnt work with POST requests.

❤️ it, thanks!

Forked to add support for POST data using a temp file (Chrome uses --data-binary and --data-raw for POST): https://gist.github.com/odony/93086f5c917e777cb2f4d0c04d477545
