It was a completely written from scratch and has little in common with netperf, but works exceedingly well, and has been used as the basis of a few academic papers. You can find it here: http://bramp.net/blog/threadnetperf-v1-0 Most of the testing has been done on Linux, but last time I checked it works on FreeBSD. I hope someone finds it useful. Andrew
