=2E/netblast 192.168.0.121 5001 32768 30

start:             1304002549.184689025
finish:            1304002579.187555311
send calls:        2163162
send errors:       2095950
approx send rate:  2240
approx error rate: 0

? This output is a bit cryptic but from what I think I understand from the =
source code it's the number of successful sends of the payload size in 30 s=
econds. =20

So to do the math:=20
(32768*2210)/(1024*1024)
69.06250000000000000000MB/sec?  This is still only saturating about half th=
e link speed.
