At least a = 10% difference, due to TCP overhead. So make sure you test on already = compressed data (like an MP3 stream). The more compressed the data the = less likely it will go through protocol compression en route. -- Ryan On Nov 1, 2010, at 10:48 PM, Antonio Olivares wrote: > On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 10:42 PM, Gary Kline wrote: >> People, is there a utility to give me the rate of bps that I am >> _supposed_ to be getting from my telco DSL? >>=20 >> tia, >>=20 >> gary >>=20 >> -- >> Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public = Service Unix >> The 7.90a release of Jottings: = http://jottings.thought.org/index.php >> An Open Letter to Stephen Hawking = http://www.thought.org/#oL >>=20 >> _______________________________________________ >> freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list >> http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions >> To unsubscribe, send any mail to = "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >>=20 >=20 > Try iperf? >=20 > http://www.freebsdsoftware.org/benchmarks/iperf.html >=20 > Used it to test speed on modem connection. >=20 > Hope this helps. >=20 > Regards, >=20 > Antonio > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to = "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
