description:
  Use this utility to test the performance of interactive ssh sessions or scp file transfers. It uses ssh to log into a remote system, then runs two tests: the first test sends one character at a time, waiting for each character to be returned while it records the latency time for each. The second test sends a dummy file over scp to /dev/null on the remote system.

  For the echo test, you may specify a character count limit (-c) or a test time limit (-t), and also the command (-e) used on the remote system that echoes characters back.

  For the speed test, you may specify the number of megabytes to send (-s) and the target location for the copies (-z).
