A few weeks ago someone posted the use of the buffer cmd to send stdout/stdin to other machines on the network in an efficient manner.
Someone replied that they use the dd cmd instead. Could someone verify that the dd cmd (with the correct ibs= obs= options) allows for comparable network performance? I have a 100mb network and my linux machine is definately the slowest and would like to test some distributed video processing and would prefer to use an existing unix util rather than a new one. Also, how would one benchmark different buffer settings for a 100Mb network vs a 10MB network? Starting values for the buffer/dd cmd would be of help. I suppose I could do all this work myself but wonder if others have tried comparing the two cmds (and how the benchmark was performed). ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
