I think you are right. Once perf stopped receiving, the client started to send 'ICMP dest. unreachable'. If I add the number of packets, they get pretty close to the number of packets lost reported by perf. So maybe perf should just stop sending after $duration (or SIGHUP) and wait a while for the last packets to arrive? -- Leo Baltus, internetbeheerder /\ NPO ICT Internet Services /NPO/\ Sumatralaan 45, 1217 GP Hilversum, Filmcentrum, west \ /\/ [email protected], 035-6773555 \/ _______________________________________________ Unbound-users mailing list [email protected] http://unbound.nlnetlabs.nl/mailman/listinfo/unbound-users
