> What Does Microsoft Recommend > Microsoft maintains two synthetic network benchmarking tools, ntttcp (Windows NT Test TCP) and ctsTraffic. Okay, let's see which of these is compatible with the iperf3 available on my locked-down commercial router (or, alternatively, the test endpoint my ISP provides) … …it's neither… …aaaaand we're back to iperf3 on Windows. :-( As tongue-in-cheek this comment may be, a recommendation for 2 incompatible tools is worth nothing. Iperf is the de-facto standard, if anything the problem is sometimes you have iperf2 around for some reason. If, Microsoft, you want better Windows network stack benchmark results, you'll need to make something compatible with iperf3 (or fix iperf3.) (It does not matter that ntttcp runs on Linux. I can't install ntttcp on an Ubiquiti router, or ask my ISP to add another test endpoint.)
