goben

goben is a super handy Command Line tool designed for measuring the TCP/UDP transport layer between your applications and the network. The transport layer is like the backbone of network architecture, making sure that different apps can talk to each other smoothly, even if they're on separate machines. It’s all about creating a logical connection between apps running on different hosts, so they act like they’re plugged in together, even when they’re not.

Why Choose goben?

The developer built goben to tackle some of the issues you might find with other network measurement tools out there. What makes this tool special? Well, it can use all the power from your computer’s multiple CPUs without wasting any processing power! Plus, it works across different platforms and has a straightforward synchronous code flow that’s easy to follow.

Getting Started with goben

If you want to jump in and start using goben, it’s pretty simple! First off, you’ll need to fire up the server and then run the client that points to your server's address. This app can also limit maximum bandwidth and handle multiple traffic streams at once without putting too much strain on your processor.

Exporting Results Made Easy

One of the coolest features of goben is how you can export results. After running your tests, you can get them into an easy-to-read chart format like PNG. This way, you’ll have quick access to all your test results! If PNG isn’t your thing, don’t worry—you can also export them as CSV or YAML for more options.
