My preference SwingBench which was created by an Oracle employee in the UK, Dominic Giles, and available for free. I don't have the exact URL handy but if you go to www.psoug.org and click on Downloads you'll find it.

I've used it with both the Oracle database and TimesTen and it is now part of the standard RAC class taught by PSOUG.
