I like the output of this script, especially since it tests BOTH upload and download speeds. Is this your project?

Hi,

No, This is improved version of script/superbench.sh at master · oooldking/script · GitHub

But it has so much potential left behind

It’s using speedtest-cli… There’s a reason it’s not used much by benchmark scripts.

Yeah, I realized that after I saw the share link at the bottom of the output. Would be nice if there’s an alternative out there that can test both download and upload speeds. Maybe I’ll write something up that uses iperf or something. Problem is, there’s only a few public iperf servers out there.

what is wrong with that script?

I think it’s awesome and the real measure between the server and real visitors

the iperf, speedtest from some servers is not a real visitors experience

speedtest-cli, apart from being wildly inaccurate and showing completely unrealistic numbers (0.2Mbps upload to a server located 0.2ms away on an uncontested gigabit pipe) introduces too many variables into the equation.

If you see low numbers, you have no idea whether
a) the speedtest server is just crap
b) the speedtest server isn’t able to handle your speeds (since it can be on a 10Mbps line and you wouldn’t know)
c) your connection is bad
d) the issue is somewhere in the middle
e) requires quite a bit of CPU at higher speeds

With iperf, you know the IP of the server, which means you can traceroute it to troubleshoot any issues. The iperf server operators also generally publish how fast the connection is.

Not to mention iperf can utilize multiple threads, which simulates real world usage much much better (a server generally serves multiple users), while being able to max out any connection (assuming both sides are fast enough)

Also, iperf does IPv6 :joy:
