[apologies if you received duplicates]
Folks, we just opensourced (under GPL v3) a network benchmarking tool called uperf at http://www.uperf.org. I encourage you to check it out.
uperf (just like filebench) takes a description of the networking component of workloads and replays it. Using a "model" allows you to change different parameters (like scale, protocol, etc..) and analyze performance. I hope you find it useful.
Uperf is work in progress and we are adding more functionality. If you would like to contribute, please feel free so; we can use all the help. thanks, -neel

and I have downloaded it from its sourceforge page:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/uperf/uperf-1.0-src.tar.bz2
The problem is: 1. the tarball has many garbage such as uperf/CVS/, uperf/doc/CVS/, could you clear them before releasing? 2. A better tarball includes files starting with <pkgname>-<pkgver>/...;

Thanks; I have removed the CVS directories from the src tarball. -neel _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss at opensolaris dot org
