The question to consider are: are JAVA based "
There are obviously some variables, buffering or something out there

We'll use these devices to test throughput and resource utilization on
routers and firewalls/security systems. We'll also test and prove
candidate QoS configurations (ie: DSCP41 still works well even when
DSCP11 is saturating links).

I've used Spirent, IXIA and Anritsu test gear and I prefer the Anritsu
