I can try to explain what I understand:

>From the README page of cbench we get

./cbench -p 54321
cbench: controller benchmarking tool
    connecting to controller at localhost:54321
    faking 16 switches :: 16 tests each; 1000 ms per test
    starting test with 0 ms delay after features_reply
    debugging info is off


In this case cbench is running with default params (only port is set),
which means it is in latency mode. In this mode each switch sends a
PacketIn and waits for a reply before sending the next one. In throughput
mode, switches send as many packets as possible at once (they don't wait
for a reply).

16  switches: fmods/sec:  4661  4656  4655  4651  4649  4647  4645
4643  4640  4636  4634  4631  4625  4621  4617  4608   total =
74.218852 per ms


This line represents one loop execution of cbench. Each value is the number
of flow-mods (and/or packet-outs after looking at the code) that each one
of the 16 switches received received in one second.

RESULT: 16 switches 16 tests min/max/avg/stdev =
74218.85/77850.14/76432.01/1214.77 responses/s


In the end we get the total number of responses (min, max, avg and standard
deviation) per second of all switches in all tests/loops.
