I don't know! Please nuke it in your build.

Some evidence pointed at an iperf threading bug.

Yes.

Gofer it!

daring enough to try building these for the wndr3800, wndr3700v2 and
nanostation, (or anything else with ath9k in it!) it would be very good to
put these through as many other scenarios as possible, notably adhoc and
wds need to get looked at - but go forth! blow things up anyway you can!
measure! Flent has a rtt_fair_var test if you can get multiple stations
going... Virtual beer to you, if you put your build up somewhere. The
