Hi!
I'm trying to meashure network throughput between two 6.2-PRERELEASE boxes,
basically get maximim IP packets per second transmitted/received.
Tried to use iperf from ports in UDP mode with 64 byte payload,
but it calls gettimeofday() after each write and gives me about 80Kpps only
for Pentium D 2.8Ghz.
just write your own program that repeatedly calls send() on an udp
socket, and you should be able to go way up.
in the past (2001-2002) i tweaked the kernel with a sysctl that
generated multiple (e.g. 100 or so) copies of each packet for a
single send(), just for testing purposes, and on a 700 MHz machine
i think i reached something in the order of 5-700kpps on a 4.x
At the time the limit was the Gig-E card mounted on a PCI-66/64
bus. These days with a decent card on a PCI-X bus you shouldn't
have these problems.

What alternative should I use? May be, a netgraph node?_______________________________________________
