Benchmark the packets-per-second performance of a network deviceThis article is about measuring network throughput and performance using a Linux box, in a very approximate way. There are many network performance benchmarks and stress-tests which measure the maximum bandwidth transfer rate of a device – that is how many bytes-per-second or bits-per-second a device can handle. Good examples for such benchmark tests are NetPerf, Iperf, or even multiple Wget downl
