Anybody got a network of PCs that have cards that run at 10GBytes/sec? ;)
I missed that, and that answers the "was it a GigaBytes verses Gigabits error" question. Nothing new here by the looks of it - people in this thread were getting those sorts of speeds a year ago out of PC hardware under Linux - http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/15/234 "I have achieved a collective throughput of 66.25 Gbit/s." "We've achieved 70 Gbps aggregate unidirectional TCP performance from one P6T6 based system to another."
