Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] File sink causes "S" errors

How is the sustained rate when you simultaneously run
rx_streaming_samples (without dump) and dd?

File IO back-pressures the usrp2 driver, which back-pressures the socket
recv, and when that happens, eventually, the kernel will overwrite
datagrams, packets are lost, the S means sequence error.

BTW, rx_streaming_samples does not use the gnuradio framework, it reads
directly from the usrp2 driver and writes to disk.
