NDISTest 6.0 - [1 Machine] - 1c_Mini6PerfSend

  • Article

This test tries to keep the send path continuously busy. It starts by creating as many threads as processors on the test machine and from each of these threads sends pre-allocated packets to the network adapter. The rate of sends from each thread is controlled by the send complete rate of the miniport. It also measures the performance that the driver is able to achieve on the send path. The test goes through various combinations of send parameters (number of net buffers, number of net buffers per net buffer list, net buffer lists size, and so on), each running for 30 seconds.
