Peripheral Performance Measure

[snorlaxx 0]

Hi Guys!

 

Is it possible for me to measure the performance of several peripherals in a given board? Lets say if i want to measure the speed of my ethernet peripheral, do i have to create kernel modules for this? or should i only get a tool for measuring network performance?

My goal is to see how the OS drives these peripherals and see if there is any overhead.

Thanks everyone!

sorry to say that it is not enough... ultimately, i have to prove that Embedded linux is better than uiTRON... so i have to use something that can be used for iTron and Linux...

Hope for more ideas.. thanks!
