Compiling

Once you have the distribution, on UNIX, unpack it using gzip and tar. That will create a new directory 'jperf-<version#>' with the source files and documentation.

Jperf compiles cleanly on many systems including Linux, SGI IRIX, HP-UX, Solaris, AIX, and Cray UNICOS. Use 'make' to configure for your OS and compile the source code. 


gunzip -c jperf-<version>.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
cd jperf-<version>
cd jsrc
make
If you have problems, please report them to dast@nlanr.net and we will try to fix them quickly.
To run Jperf, make sure all the jars are in your classpath and run: 
java Jperf
Or you can explicitly put the jars in your classpath and run it by: 
java -classpath <path-to-jar>/jfreechart-0.9.6.jar:<path-to-jar>/jcommon-0.7.2.jar:<path-to-jar>/jperf.jar Jperf

Features

  • Provide a graphical Front-End to the Iperf performance tool.
  • Produce a graph representation of a run.
  • Iperf version detection to allow only applicable options.
  • Where appropriate, options can be specified with K (kilo-) and M (mega-) suffices. So 128K instead of 131072 bytes.

Requirements for running Jperf

Jperf requires a java virtual machine version 1.4 or greater. To compile Jperf you also need a java compiler 1.4 or greater. These can be obtained from Sun Microsystems.

Jperf requires a version of Iperf to be included in the $PATH when running Jperf. Iperf can be obtained from DAST/NLANR.
