Hello @tweak42 ,

https://openwrt.org/packages/start?q=rperf&do=search

So it's going to be have to built and compiled into the image.

However, it's says it supports 'linux', but doesn't mention anything about arm based router boards.

Looks like an interesting iperf3 replacement, but it hasn't been touched for 2 years, which either means it's perfect or unmaintained.
