Thanks for this information George. I just synched up the git repository with the tarball. A fresh git clone, ./configure, and make should work now.

Thought you would want to know that the file named "missing" is ironically missing from the git repo so make fails. Building the tar ball succeeds. If I copy "missing" from the tar ball to the directory containing the git clone then the build succeeds. I've compared the contents of the tar ball and a freshly cloned repo and found the following files differ: $ diff -r -q -w iperf-2.0.7 iperf-2.0.7-git/ Only in iperf-2.0.7-git/: .git Files iperf-2.0.7/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/Makefile.in differ Only in iperf-2.0.7-git/: autogen.sh Files iperf-2.0.7/compat/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/compat/Makefile.in differ Files iperf-2.0.7/configure and iperf-2.0.7-git/configure differ Files iperf-2.0.7/doc/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/doc/Makefile.in differ Files iperf-2.0.7/include/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/include/Makefile.in differ Only in iperf-2.0.7-git/include: Settings.hpp~ Files iperf-2.0.7/man/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/man/Makefile.in differ Only in iperf-2.0.7: missing Files iperf-2.0.7/src/Makefile.in and iperf-2.0.7-git/src/Makefile.in differ Regards, George ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob (Robert) McMahon" <rmcma...@broadcom.com> To: "George Halpert" <geo...@thesoniccloud.com> Cc: iperf-users@lists.sourceforge.net, "Jon Lederman" <jonleder...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, September 4, 2014 2:16:51 PM Subject: RE: [Iperf-users] Difference In Jitter Calculations Between IPerf2 and IPerf3 Hi George, That's a mistake on my end. The client is the primary place I found SCHED_RR helpful. I did commit this in the SVN repository and it's in the tar ball but didn't commit it in the git repository. That's fixed now and they all should be coherent.

I'm curious, why didn't you also use SCHED_RR for the client thread?
