Hi, Seeing these results, i wonder what one can expect with gigabit-network. Is it worthwhile the costs, as i seem to remember that the bandwith drops quickly with cable-length (cat-6)... Hans. On Sunday 02 January 2005 12:06, Paul Hewlett wrote:

see on your local filesystem. If you take a simple 100Mb network, that means you'll get 10Mbytes/s data rate. That's going to be about 10 times slower than on a ATA 133 channel (That includes SATA 150). Or, using hdparm -t on my hard drive:
Actually you will see less than 10Mbytes/s due to protocol overhead. A 10Mbits/s ethernet maxes out at 785kbytes/s. On that basis you should see only 7 to 8 Mbytes/s on a 100Mbits network and that will be for a sustained transfer of a large file using sftp. I tried this and got a reported 6.8Mbytes/s.
