netpipe_test is a test which produces bandwidth and latency values for
incrementing buffer sizes.
Arguments to run_test:
bidirectional - indicates whether the test should run simultaneously in both
directions
buffer_size - Sets the send and receive TCP buffer sizes (from man NPtcp)
upper_bound - Specify the upper boundary to the size of message being tested.
By default, NetPIPE will stop when the time to transmit a block
exceeds one second. (from man NPtcp)
variance - NetPIPE chooses the message sizes at regular intervals,
increasing them exponentially from the lower boundary to the
upper boundary. At each point, it also tests perturbations of 3
bytes above and 3 bytes below (default) each test point to find
idiosyncrasies in the system. This perturbation value can be
changed using using this option or turned off by setting
perturbation_size to 0. (from man NPtcp)
