Oct 3, 2017 at 7:52 comment added Arkaik I finnaly kept using dd and netcat but I'm measuring time before and after with date. I also send 1Go through network so measured time should be relevant.

Oct 2, 2017 at 15:49 comment added Stéphane Chazelas @Arkaik, it would be more relevant if you sent several hundred megabytes and start measuring after the first few megabytes have been sent for the TCP congestion algorithm to have attained its cruise speed.

Oct 2, 2017 at 15:39 comment added Stéphane Chazelas @Arkaik, no. What I'm saying is that it's not a valid approach to measure network throughput. It's independant of how dd's stderr is redirected.

Oct 2, 2017 at 15:31 comment added Arkaik Wooow I'm impressed ^^ I would never have found this alone. Just to confirm, the information is not relevant only with the second solution right? I only tried the first one which seems to work perfectly. Thanks a lot
