Thanks for the overhead info. I used that in my latest tests. That makes me
wonder if those overheads could be defaulted when Cake knows Ethernet is being
used with rate limiting? I know a goal is to make cake easier to configure so
such things are examples of what people are likely to miss.
Glad to hear irtt runs for you! I was waiting to post something until I clean
up some more things in the todo list, but since you found it, let me know (file
an Issue) if you find any problems. Also, if you have something later than El
Capitan, I might be interested to see the output from “irtt sleep” or ten
seconds or so from “irtt clock”, as I’m gradually learning about timer/clock
behavior on different OSs. I guess it could also be filed as an Issue, so we
don’t add too much to the cake list...
