Also, don't forget to measure with working-loads too
--working-load[=up|down|bidir][,n]
request a concurrent working load, currently TCP stream(s), defaults to
full duplex (or bidir) unless the up or down option is provided. The
number of TCP streams defaults to 1 and can be changed via the n value,
e.g. --working-load=down,4 will use four TCP streams from server to the
client as the working load. The IP ToS will be BE (0x0) for working load
traffic.
--working-load-cca
Set the congestion control algorithm to be used for TCP working loads
Maybe keep a few rasberry pi's in one's backback with iperf 2? That way
you're always prepared for latency emergencies. The Rpi5 has a TCXO for
it's clock.

> --bounceback-no-quickack
> request the server not set the TCP_QUICKACK socket option (disabling

> --bounceback-period[=n]
> request the client schedule its send(s) every n seconds (default is
> one second, use zero value for immediate or continuous back to back)
> --bounceback-request n
> set the bounceback request size in units bytes. Default value is 100
> bytes.
> --bounceback-reply n
> set the bounceback reply size in units bytes. This supports asymmetric
> message sizes between the request and the reply. Default value is
> zero, which uses the value of --bounceback-request.
> --bounceback-txdelay n
> request the client to delay n seconds between the start of the working
> load and the bounceback traffic (default is no delay)
