Hi, Quick question on iperf and kernel 2.6.22 (official and exp DCCP tree). I use 2 computers + 1 netembox in between Here are iperf cmd lines I use : on dccpServer : # iperf -s -Xdccp -l1424 on dccpClient : # iperf -c dccpServer -Xdccp -l1424 -t30 On 2.6.22 kernel: Without netem rate control, iperf result is about 95.0 Mbits/sec With netem rate control at 1024Kbits/sec, iperf result could be 10Kbits/sec or 30Kbits/sec... On 2.6.20 with Ian's patches: Without netem rate control, iperf result is about 95.0 Mbits/sec With netem rate control at 1024Kbits/sec, iperf result is about 950Kbits/sec. netem cmd lines: (I also tried with delay and loss turned on) tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 tbf rate 1024kbit buffer 10000 limit 30000 tc qdisc add dev eth1 root handle 1:0 tbf rate 1024kbit buffer 10000 limit 30000 Is anyone has a such low rate on 2.6.22 kernel? do you know why? regards, Patrick.
Question - what do you get on an unpatched 2.6.20 kernel? I think this is my patches making it work well but want to verify that it's not just something breaking between 2.6.20 and 2.6.22. I'll try and replicate this later.
