+ "Netperf is a benchmark that can be used to measure the performance of
+many different types of networking. It provides tests for both unidirectional
+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.")
