James:

Thanks for reply. That is roughly what we are set to do: a throughput test
including retrieving some data, process it, and then send it back.

We have an applet that does 3 simple tests.
1. Simple math computation (create 100000 random numbers I think)
2. Connection (send a small amount of data to the server and get a
response)
3. Bandwidth (send a large amount of data)

Each test is timed and there are pass, fail, and warning times for each
test.  It is simple but it works well enough for us.
