My data point: WD8013 on a 386/25 -> SGI over local quiet ether
2486813 bytes sent in 7.98 seconds (311448 bytes/s)
NE2100 clone on VLB using le0, 486/100 -> DEC 5000/240 Ultrix
over busy mildly ethernet (10-15% base load) 400kbytes/s
I think a 32-bit datapath helps, as does base clockspeed but i think
this one should have done better. Any ideas?
