Hello everyone,

I have compiled netperf-2.7.0 on linux x86-64, with the following options:

sh configure --prefix=/usr --enable-demo --enable-histogram

I have observed that sometimes the partial result is not printed. Here is an example of the output:

Interim result:   31.07 10^6bits/s over 1.042 seconds ending at 1610397003.583

netperf: get_sock_buffer: receive socket size determined to be 87380
netperf: get_sock_buffer: send socket size determined to be 4194304

this is an example command I use to run the executable:

netperf -H 10.24.15.6 -d 10 -l 600 -v 2 -D 1 -Y 104,104 -f m

I have a feeling that this problem pops up when there is a network connectivity problem (congestion).

Let me know if you need any other information to better detect this problem.
netperf builded with --enable-demo does not emit interim results during the run
