Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.7.0, Package name: netperf-2.7.0, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Netperf is a serious networking performance evaluation tool being
distributed under GPL by HP's Information Networks Division.
Testing is done using a pair of programs: `netserver' (the server) and
`netperf' (the measurement tool).

Netperf allows control over a large number of test `variables'.
Some of these are:

* specification of desired confidence levels for the tests
Netperf will warn the user if these levels were not achieved.
* filling send buffers with specified data (to beat compression
schemes)
* specification of send/recieve buffer alignments and data offsets
* requesting cpu utilization and service demand calculations
* specification of sizes of data to send

Netperf can be used for measuring stream performance as well as
round-trip performance.

This port of netperf has been configured to support:

TCP and UDP via BSD sockets
Unix domain sockets

Log message:
Add SHA512 digests for distfiles for benchmarks category

Problems found with existing distfile for superpi:
	distfiles/super_pi-20030927/super_pi.tar.gz
No changes were made to the superpi/distinfo file.

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden).  All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
