I agree, I don't think download.laptop.org onto USB stick ext3
filesystem measurements can be easily reproduced. There are too many
variables outside your control. The internet throughput can change
quickly. A USB stick flash controller can pause for block erase.
Use of iperf on a local network can be easily reproduced, however.
I'm not asking you do to it, but the way you use iperf is:
1. install iperf package on two hosts, (or install it on one and copy
the binary across),
2. on one host, run "iperf -s",
3. on the other run "iperf -c ${IP}" where ${IP} is the IP address of
the other host, and experiment with the other flags that are available.
