[netperf-talk] CPU Utilization Issues

[Lentz, Benjamin A.]

Our vendor is reporting that in request-response tests, our IBM 3850
system is running about half as fast as their small Core 2 Duo system.
Any idea what would cause these values to be reported? I'm not sure what
to make of this.

Thanks again in advance!

On our vendor's smaller system:

[root at es3rac-1 src]# sh udp_rr_script 192.168.2.102

------------------------------------------------------
Testing with the following command line:
./netperf -l 60 -H 192.168.2.102 -i 10,2 -I 99,10 -t UDP_RR -- -r 1,1 -s
