Wireblast: a 100 Gbps Packet Generator Written in Go on AF_XDP
Andree Toonk / Hacker News·low signal
Andree Toonk released Wireblast, a packet generator hitting 100 Gbps from Go by bypassing the kernel network stack with AF_XDP — a combination usually assumed to require C or DPDK. It's a useful datapoint for anyone benchmarking inference-serving or agent infrastructure at line rate without adopting a C toolchain. 43 points and 16 comments on HN, single-source and newly published, so the throughput claim is the author's own measurement.
