1This directory contains an RTEMS application for measuring TCP/UDP
2network throughput.   The ttcp_orig subdirectory contains the original
3UNIX program which can be compiled and run on your host machine.

5The RTEMS version of the test program is a little clumsy to use.  You
6have to edit the rtems_ttcp.c source file and change the ttcp_argv
7array of strings to set the arguments you want passed to the ttcp
8task.

10It does work, though.  The best throughputs I've seen so far are:
11        68360 card can transmit a TCP stream at 198 kbytes/second.
12        68360 card can receive a TCP stream at 119 kbytes/second.
13In both cases, the other end of the transfer was a 486DX2/66 running
14OPENSTEP/MACH 4.1. 
15
16One noteworthy item is that I was able to get the UNIX test program
17running under RTEMS with no changes to the test program itself.  The
18entire UNIX source file is included, without changes, into the RTEMS
19source file.
