It's pretty tedious to compare - Have to run diags, take screenshots, set up watchers on a modern machine, run comparisons on the classic mac hardware, and then transfer those back from the mac to the modern machine (I haven't set up a network share solution for the mac yet, so each transfer is power down and transfer via SD card), run thru agent for validation and feedback, and repeat for each iteration.
I went thru a few rounds of this (about 4 release candidates) before i decided that what I had was Good Enough and published it. I have noticed that Claude tends towards this "circumcizing the moquito" sometimes in the qa/validation phase.
Here's what I was able to measure from the test dsata
| Measure | MoofTCP | MacTCP 2.1 |
|---|---|---|
| ACK of an echoed keystroke (median) | 2.8 ms | 4.5 ms |
| ACK of an echoed keystroke (worst case) | 16.8 ms | 17.6 ms |
| Delayed-ACK stall on interactive data | none | none |
| Wikipedia Reader, follow a link | 51.7 s | 53.2 s |
| Fetch 10 MiB over TAP | about 47–49 KB/s | about 49 KB/s |
| Advertised TCP window | 8,192 | 4,220 |
| Transmit stalls and retransmissions on the real Mac | 0 | not measured |
