Using the default options, iperf is meant to show typical well designed application performance.
'Typical well designed application' means avoiding artificial enhancements that work only for testing
(such as splice()'ing the data to /dev/null). iperf does also have flags for 'extreme best case'
optimizations but they must be explicitly activated.

* UDP performance: iperf2/iperf3 both only are only about 50% as fast as nuttcp in UDP mode.
We are looking into this, but in the meantime, if you want to get UDP above 5Gbps, we recommend
using nuttcp instead (http://www.nuttcp.net/)
* Interval reports on high-loss networks: The way iperf3 is currently implemented, the sender
write command will block until the entire block has been written. This means that it might take
several seconds to send a full block if the network has high loss, and the interval reports will
have widely varying interval times. We are trying to determine the best solution to this, but in
the meantime, try using a smaller block size if you get strange interval reports.
For example, try "-l 4K".
