rpc.sprayd, sprayd — Spray Server

Synopsis

/usr/lib/netsvc/spray/rpc.sprayd

Description

The rpc.sprayd daemon is a server that records the packets sent by spray(1M). Start the rpc.sprayd daemon with inetd(1M) or listen(1M).

The service provided by rpc.sprayd is not useful as a networking benchmark because it uses unreliable connectionless transports, (udp, for example). It can report a large number of packets dropped when the drops were because the program sent packets faster than they could be buffered locally (before the packets get to the network medium).
