2006-01-25 magsim (2x3GHz HT Xeon, 2GB RAM, Intel netcard), under load with 1 matlab and sometimes Xvnc and saber. penguin (1x2.8GHz HT p4, 1GB RAM, Broadcom netcard), no other load. Made random (urandom) file, 400000*1024 Bytes, in /dev/shm on magsim. Copying with scp to penguin /dev/shm gave only 25GB/s, with attempt at full CPU use (encryption bottleneck). Using ftp server on magsim, got reliably (within a few %): magsim -> penguin 409600000 bytes received in 4.25 secs (9.4e+04 Kbytes/sec) penguin -> magsim 409600000 bytes sent in 3.52 secs (1.1e+05 Kbytes/sec)
