[Live-devel] Benchmarking Live555 mpeg 4 streaming

[Ross Finlayson]

IMHO, the best way to measure the performance of a LIVE555-based 
system is to record the time taken to traverse each 'link' in the 
data chain - i.e., record the time at which each piece of data enters 
the chain (in its 'network reading' or after getting' function). 
Also, for RTP sinks, you should record the time that each packet gets 
sent.

In particular, for "MultiFramedRTPSink", you would record the times 
at which "afterGettingFrame" gets called, and the times at which 
"sendPacket()" is called.
