BE SURE TO READ THE MANUAL. EVEN THOUGH IT MAY BE OUTDATED.
This is a brief readme file for the netperf TCP/UDP/sockets/etc
performance benchmark. This is here mostly as a boot-strap. The real
information is in the manual, which can be found in netperf.ps and
online from https://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html. The
sources, and a limited number of binaries, can be found from
ftp://ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/benchmarks/netperf/ .

Feel free to report netperf results in public forums, but please be
excruciatingly complete in your description of the test envorinment.
The old netperf database at:
  https://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html
is no more - or rather the utilities for accessing it no longer run.
The data is still present in the tree, albeit _VERY_ old now.
There is an Internet mailing list devoted to netperf. It is called
netperf-talk and it is hosted on netperf.org. Subscription requests
should go to netperf-talk-request@netperf.org.
Please DO NOT SEND subscription requests to netperf-talk!
If you run into severe difficulties, or are just feeling chatty,
please feel free to drop some email to me - Rick Jones
<rick.jones2@hp.com>. Be sure to include a meaningful subject lines.
happy benchmarking,
rick jones
