ssh(scp) has windowing issues at higher rates of it's own. Or at
least, it used to.

If I could get you to do a netperf-wrapper rrul_be test on the same
link, I would believe you are getting a valid result. Remember that
one machine running a test program may not be able to mess up the
network, but most people/families/offices have way more people and way
more machines.

I have successfully got netperf-wrapper to build on OSX on macports,
but not brew.

Alternatively, load up the link with a bunch of netperfs, and while
doing a ping. Since it is hard to get 250Mbit service, here's a rough
equivalent of the
rrul test aimed at multiple sites.

ping 8.8.8.8 > ping.log &
netperf -H netperf-eu.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_MAERTS &
netperf -H netperf-eu.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_MAERTS &
netperf -H netperf-west.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_MAERTS &
netperf -H netperf-east.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_MAERTS &


netperf -H netperf-eu.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_STREAM &
netperf -H netperf-eu.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_STREAM &
netperf -H netperf-west.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_STREAM &
netperf -H netperf-east.bufferbloat.net -l 300 -t TCP_STREAM &
