:nice, 950 Mbs which should be the theoretical maximum.  what kind of CPUs
:do you have in there, and do you know how hard they were working?
:

    These are 1.1 GHz duel Pentium III's.  One of the cpu's is maxed out
    at that transfer rate (this is -stable and the program is in the system
    most of the time so...).  That's where zero-copy would probably help.

    Of course, it's just a benchmark.  It doesn't represent performance if
    one had to do *real* work on the data going over the link :-)
