Hi Sergio,

IMHO netperf is a convenient toll to generate load, and for measuring 
bufferbloat, or latency under load increase, generating saturating loads is an 
important step. So I see no reason why the fct that netperf is relatively 
mature and sees only little change nowadays speaks against using it. I note 
that optionally the actual latency measurement can/will be performed using 
irtt...
        I guess the real experts will be able to offer a more nuanced opinion...

Best Regards
        Sebastian
