on single systems and clusters of systems. It is a command-line
based tool that grew out of the UNIX world and has been ported to
run in Windows environments as well. It is designed to provide
consistent and reproducible performance measurements of disk I/O
traffic. There are three basic components to xdd that include the
xdd program itself, a timeserver program, and a gettime program.
The timeserver and gettime programs are used to synchronize the
clocks of xdd programs simultaneously running across multiple
computer systems.

include:
- speedups for MIPS emulation,
- an improved dyntrans backend,
- tweaks to ARM, PPC, AVR, SPARC and MIPS emulation,
- support for remote debugging using GDB,
- a new statistics gathering option "-s",
- most configuration options are no longer supported,
- bug fixes.
Port changes:
- the port no longer depends on GCC >= 3.2 on FreeBSD 4.X.
- OPTION "X" has been renamed as "X11" for consistency.
Here are the documented changes from 6.3 to 6.31:
- importation of waypoints from Kismet .network files with
location information, asked by Bernd Stuht; some new options
on this should be configured by editing config.tcl.
- map window can now be resized.
- WARNING: Garmin USB support for some recent Garmin receivers
will need at least version 0.28 of the garmin_gps Linux kernel
driver.
- updates to Garmin support following the specifications
made available in May 2006, but not (yet) covering some new
protocols for fitness-oriented receivers.
- explicit support for several Garmin receivers or their new
firmware versions, including: GPSMAP 60CSX and 76CSX, EDGE 205 and
305, GPS 18USB, eTrex Legend Cx, Forerunner 205, and GPS 60; with
