That looks like identical tests to me. And my netperf (debian testing)
doesn't appear to have -t TIPC_STREAM.

Please try a coherent report and I'll have another look. Don't (again)
forget to mention what kind of setup you're running this on.


On my IVB-EP (2 sockets, 10 cores, 2 threads), performance cpufreq,
PTI=n RETPOLINE=n, I get:


CPUS=`grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo`

for test in TCP_STREAM
do
        for i in 1 $((CPUS/4)) $((CPUS/2)) $((CPUS)) $((CPUS*2))
        do
                echo -n $test-$i ": "

                (
                  for ((j=0; j<i; j++))
                  do
                        netperf -t $test -4 -c -C -l 60 -P0 | head -1 &
                  done

        done
