There's an easy way to test the speed limits of the network Vs the limits of |
40 |
the storage media. Use netcat/telnet to send a large file across from tmpfs |
41 |
on host A to a tmpfs on host B. As long as tmpfs is large enough to not start |
42 |
using swap, the speed will reflect what the network can achieve. |
