Description:

HELIOS LanTest is a very popular network performance and reliability testing solution for Mac and Windows clients. It is very easy to use within seconds and scales from single local disk testing, to testing performance of a network volume, as well as multi-user concurrent client testing against a single server volume.

This version has been designed using the latest native APIs for testing common file I/O operations, which are used when working with files on server volumes. Five different setups are available, to range from slower networks like standard Ethernet/DSL, up to 40 Gigabit Ethernet.

HELIOS LanTest displays the results on the screen (see figure above) and collects them in a logfile for later use, e.g. in a spreadsheet application. It also recognizes how many LanTest users are concurrently running performance tests, and therefore allows determining the server performance under multi-user load.
