This ARC contains the source code and executable program for the LANPERF
program originally placed in the public domain by PC Tech Journal. The
modifications are twofold. Unlike the original, Version 1.1 of LANPERF is
written entirely in C, and can be ported to non-DOS environments if the timer
routines are rewritten. The maximum block size has been increased from
4096 bytes to 65534 bytes, the maximum allowed by DOS. The original PC Tech
Journal Copyright remains on the program.
In addition to being a good program for testing LANs under various loads,
its original stated purpose, LANPERF is also good for measuring hard disks,
diskettes, and other devices.
The files are:
LANPERF.C Source for Version 1.1 of LANPERF (nearly portable and nearly
ANS C compatible)
LANPERF.EXE Executable LANPERF program for MS-DOS compiled with Microsoft
C 5.0 and huge memory model.
1. Compile and link LANPERF.C as follows with C 5.0 or later:
cl /AH lanperf.c
The result is an EXE greater than 160KB in size.
2. Compress the EXE down to managable size with Microsoft's EXEPACK utility, or
equivalent. After EXEPACK, LANPERF.EXE is less than 32KB.
Let me know how the porting to other environments goes, and the results you
see.
Thank you.
