RedTest

Want to know why your rednet is slow?
Then Try This program now!

The aim of this program is to test the latency and get the bit rate of your network.

I don't see how this could be of use...

I can't see any use of this and the server side will crash after 256 rednet messages because there will be a stackoverflow.
Edit: fixed typo that was made by the autocorrection on my iPad(it changed rednet to redneck)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like it would get compiled to use tail recursion, since the gs call always happens at the end of control flow in the function.

Edit: Nevermind, the calls would have to be changed to return gs() instead of just gs().

It may be useless but it's an interesting performance benchmark.

Tell me MORE!!!

Also, I see how this could have SOME use on a laggy server.

It only allows up to 256 modems? I thought cc max number was set bit java architecture not locked by 16 bits.

No. It would crash because they're trying to use recursion instead of an actual infinite loop, so they blow out the call stack after 256 messages (since that's what causes it to recurse).

Hmmm... I'm interested to see how this would work with ApeNet if I run

rednet = apenet

first. We may have an actual use! />/>
