This is like, I think, the 9th email regarding future directions for cerowrt. I am off for a little vacation this week so don&#39;t expect<br>a lot more from me.<br><br>... snip ...<br><br>netperf has been my primary stream creation tool for a while, I find the TCP_STREAM, TCP_MAERTS, and TCP_RR tests very helpful.<br>
<br>Rick Jones has been busy adding interesting features such as tos setting, priority setting, and most recently tcp congestion control setting over the past year.<br><br>These changes have broken backward compatability with netperf 2.5, but moving forward in the next release cycle of cerowrt,<br>
I&#39;m also willing to break backward compatability in order to more fully test the above features. I have no idea when Rick plans<br>a new release, but I suppose he&#39;d like some more testing himself.<br><br>And:<br><br>
I&#39;d also LOVE to find something that could compute &quot;jain&#39;s fairness index&quot; against packet captures of multiple streams.<br><br>However, even that appears insensitive to sending mountainous waves of packets across the internet, so long as they are &#39;fair&#39;. <br clear="all">
