PHORONIX TEST SUITE
Just as a quick follow-up to adding Netperf to the Phoronix Test Suite, the iperf3 client is now available as an additional networking benchmark via PTS.

After adding netperf and deciding to do some fresh Linux networking benchmarks in the days ahead for some Phoronix articles, I went ahead and added iperf.

Assuming you have an accessible iPerf server running on your network, you can now run phoronix-test-suite benchmark iperf and with options for the server/port/duration/test/parallel count.

More details via pts/iperf on OpenBenchmarking.org (the raw test profile). Stay tuned for some fun Linux networking benchmarks on Phoronix in the coming days.
