I'll definitely take a look - that does look inte= resting. I don't have X11 on any of my test VMs, but
it looks= like it can work without the GUI.

Thanks!

could I coax you to adopt flent?

You sometimes have to compile netperf yourself with --enable-demo on
some systems.
There are a bunch of python libs neede for the gui, but only on the client.=

Then you can run a really gnarly test series and plot the results over time= .
