Hi
Looking into the following blueprint which requires that network
performance tests be done as part of a scenario
I plan to implement this using iperf and basically a scenario which
includes a client/server VM pair
My experience with netperf over the years has taught me that when there
is just the single stream and pair of "systems" one won't actually know
if the performance was limited by inbound, or outbound. That is why the
likes of
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2/trunk/doc/examples/netperf_by_flavor.py
and
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2/trunk/doc/examples/netperf_by_quantum.py
apart from being poorly written python :) Will launch several instances
of a given flavor and then run aggregate tests on the Instance Under
Test. Those aggregate tests will include inbound, outbound,
bidirectional, aggregate small packet and then a latency test.
happy benchmarking,
rick jones
