We have a server inside the University datacenter and I've installed the
netperf-wrapper stuff on my notebook but I'm affraid testing from where
I am won't be of much use. The network is weak at my end. Some other
link along the path will saturate before the one we want to test.

I'll add this to my ToDo-list for my next visit to the mountain.
