Readme: | AmiSpeedTest performs LAN and Internet speed tests.
Requirements are Workbench 2.0 and a TCP/IP stack.
Internet tests work by asking the AmiSpeedTest server for a list of nearby servers. TCP connections are opened to each of these to determine the server with lowest latency. Download and upload tests target the chosen server.
The program can also operate as a LAN client or LAN server so speed tests can be performed on the local network. Run the server on a fast Amiga or UAE for best results.
The application buffer size can be set to 8/16/32 KB. Depending on the test, adjusting this can affect performance. Your TCP/IP software will also have a configurable socket buffer but this is likely to be using a sensible default.
When run from Workbench, AmiSpeedTest will open its own screen if the Workbench screen height is less than 400 pixels.

Workbench tooltypes
HOST=w.x.y.z - Target server name or IP PORT=8080 - Target server port number BUFFER=8/16/32 - Buffer size in kibibytes MODE=SPEEDTEST - Run as a Speedtest.net client MODE=FAST - Run as a Fast.com client MODE=LANCLIENT - Run as a LAN client MODE=LANSERVER - Run as a LAN server SPORT=8080 - Port to listen on when run as server SCREEN=TRUE - Open in window on own screen SCREEN=FALSE - Open in window on Workbench UNIT=KILOBIT - Show speeds in kb/s (1000 bit unit) UNIT=KILOBYTE - Show speeds in kB/s (8000 bit unit) UNIT=KIBIBIT - Show speeds in Kib/s (1024 bit unit) UNIT=KIBIBYTE - Show speeds in KiB/s (8192 bit unit)
CLI arguments
HOST/K - Server name or IP PORT/K/N - Server port number BUFFER/K/N - Buffer size in kibibytes (8/16/32) FAST/S - Run as a Fast.com client SERVER/S - Run as a server WINDOW/S - Open in window on Workbench SCREEN/S - Open in window on own screen UNIT/K - Unit size as per tooltype above
CLI examples
To run as a LAN client to server 192.168.1.10:5000 with 8KB buffer:
AmiSpeedTest HOST=192.168.1.10 PORT=5000 BUFFER=8
To run as a LAN server on port 1234 in a window reporting kilobytes:
AmiSpeedTest WINDOW SERVER PORT=1234 UNIT=KILOBYTE
