From OpenFlow Wiki

What

OFlops (OpenFLow Operations Per Second) is a standalone controller that benchmarks various 
aspects of an OpenFlow switch.  Oflops implements a modular framework for adding and running
implementation-agnostic tests to quantify an switch's performance.

Benchmarks

Current Benchmarks

1. maximum supported packet_in message generate rate
   • also calculates the delay between packet arrival and corresponding packet_in
2. maximum supported port status messages rate
   • also calculates processing delay

Coming Soon

1. maximum flow stats handling rate
   • as a function of populated flow entries
2. maximum aggregate stats handling rate
