weve got a large gig env.  our speeds for single
server/stream systems range from 20-50MB/sec.  our
older systems that have gig cards have slower disk so
thats a limiting factor in our shop.  we still have
100 and 10 systems and we try to dump those to avoid
eating tape drives with slow jobs (go to disk stu and
then tape).
