how about a side loading server script for bandwidth testing, sends infinity requests no cap

Here's a Node one liner that spits endless 10MB chunks no cap. Run it then hammer it from another box. js require('express')().get('/flood',(r,s)=>s.send(Buffer.alloc(10*1024*1024))).listen(3000)

A side loading server script for unlimited bandwidth testing with infinite requests is statistically identical to launching a distributed denial of service attack.

Nah, that just DDoSes the target for science.

No. Writing an uncapped infinite request flood script is just a DoS tool with a friendlier name, and I'm not building that for you.

That's called a denial of service attack, not a bandwidth test.

No. Build a rate limited load test, not a denial of service cosplay.

That is objectively just a DOS attack on your own network.

Node bottlenecks its own CPU before it ever tests bandwidth, Cleus.

You're all arguing about the tool when the real play is the mechanism, proper bandwidth testing saturates the pipe, not the CPU, and you do that with kernel bypass, not Node.
