Comment (by acute): Hi! I developed and used his mode extensively to test out out changes to Onionperf code, but also to perform research measurements with a more limited scope (e.g for comparing different pluggable transports on different types of networks). Oneshot mode: * has no pause at the start * terminates after one 5MB download It can be used for: * testing * measurements in simulated networks * scripting and automating custom measurements with variable parameters This was written for an academic research project where it was primarily used, but other research projects (like the scaling project) could also benefit from this. Having a configurable number of downloads before Onionperf shuts down would be very nice, and so would supporting different sizes of download. Having an initial configurable pause is a great start. It is also important that oneshot mode shuts down after completing (and a new measurement can be started, e.g after changing some parameters, as part of a script). Hope this helps in understanding the mode a little bit better! -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33432#comment:4> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
