I am not sure if my experience helps -- the average Rump user would 
probably want to use rumprun and thus port the whole of netperf, while I 
more or less only replaced the AF_INET-socket related syscalls in the 
netperf netserver source code, added an init function and ran it on 
Linux. If you think that is a valid use case, please tell me, then I 
could try and assemble a patchset (I do not want to get involved in any 
kind of legal issues with HP, thus no complete source tree) and document 
it somewhere, also in the wiki if you like. This could take a while, 
though (worst case: end of May), because I still have to finish my 
Diploma thesis.
