+Netperf is a benchmark that can be used to measure the performance of
+many different types of networking. It provides tests for both uni-
+directional throughput, and end-to-end latency. The environments
+currently measureable by netperf include:
+
+TCP and UDP via BSD Sockets for both IPv4 and IPv6
+DLPI
+Unix Domain Sockets
+SCTP for both IPv4 and IPv6
