This one is going to sound weird but I am experiencing some issues with
iperf. I run Iperf from the command line on OS-X10.3 using the following
command:
./iperf -c host-ip -u -b 30m -i 1 -d
To run the test again I simply hit my up arrow key and enter in the terminal
window. When I do this the packet loss on my incoming signal is higher than
if I type in "clear" to clear my screen buffer then hit the up key on my
terminal window. I know this sounds weird but I have tested it again and
again and it effects the results. Is it possible that a terminal windows
screen buffer can effect your iperf results?
Thanks
Marc
