-Netperf is a serious networking performance evaluation tool being
-distributed under GPL by HP's Information Networks Division.
-Testing is done using a pair of programs: `netserver' (the server) and
-`netperf' (the measurement tool).
-
-Netperf allows control over a large number of test `variables'.
-Some of these are:
-
- * specification of desired confidence levels for the tests
- Netperf will warn the user if these levels were not achieved.
- * filling send buffers with specified data (to beat compression
- schemes)
- * specification of send/recieve buffer alignments and data offsets
- * requesting cpu utilization and service demand calculations
- * specification of sizes of data to send
-
-Netperf can be used for measuring stream performance as well as
-round-trip performance.
-
-This port of netperf has been configured to support:
-
- TCP and UDP via BSD sockets
- Unix domain sockets
