+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+netperf: Netperf (Performance benchmark for various types of networking)
+netperf:
+netperf: Netperf is a benchmark that can be used to measure the performance of
+netperf: many different types of networking. It provides tests for both uni-
+netperf: directional throughput, and end-to-end latency. The environments
+netperf: currently measureable by netperf include:
+netperf: - TCP and UDP via BSD Sockets for both IPv4 and IPv6
+netperf: - DLPI
+netperf: - Unix Domain Sockets
+netperf: - SCTP for both IPv4 and IPv6
