<p>Goal of this project is to develop a simple and fair-as-possible application for comparing some network libraries based on a 'reaction delay test' (Client sends a packet, Server sends the packet back und the Client measures the time between send and receive using a packet timestamp). So the test measures 'the delay of the networktransport + the delay generated by the library'. This application is <b>not</b> intended to be used as a 'xy is better than yx  for ever and everything' argument. The application is intended to be used as an indicator which  solution meets <b>your requirements</b> best. Moreover this test is designed to be fair as  possible but it <b>does not claim</b> to be fair in all cases.<br>
The testparameters are saved in a lua script which will be parsed by the application after  starting the application. You can drag&drop a config file on the application (windows) or start it  with a config-file path as parameter or without a parameter. After the application has finished  the results can be found in the specified directories and files (just take a look at the  config.lua file for further information). The creation and immediate destruction of a window is  not unusual and needed for the creation of the diagram.<br>
<br>
There are three ways to go in general:
<ul>
<li>if you trust the tests and the results, take a look at <a  href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/gallery/networklibsbenc"><u>existing results</u></a> and try to  find something similar to your basic conditions</li>
<li>if you trust the test but the results does not meet your conditions, download the <a  href="http://networklibsbenc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/networklibsbenc"><u>source</u></a>/<a  href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/networklibsbenc/"><u>binaries</u></a>, customize the  config.lua and collect your own results</li>
<li>if you do not trust the test, download the source find out why you do not trust the test and  <a href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/networklibsbenc/"><u>suggest improvements</u></a> or  contact me Nox@7bitfaster.de</li>
</ul>
