Thanks. I wanted to run the testing to get result quickly as long as
the result has no big fluctuation.

I'm not sure if prior running might leave any impact on later running, so
just kill netserver.

Yes. My formal testing uses -i 50. I just wanted a quick testing. If I need
finer-tuning or investigation, I would turn on more options.

Yes. That's good. I'm used to start vmstat or mpstat to monitor cpu utilization
in real time.
