Re: [Networker] throughput stats?

Throughput is dependent on the capability of the platform (as Bob's results
showed), but also on the data being backed up.  If you back up zillions of
little files, your transfer rates will be very slow, no matter what platform
you're backing up on.  On the other hand, large, compressible files deliver
startlingly-good results.

Mark,

We see average transfer rates in the 12MB/s range from our more robust Unix
clients.
Other clients average 6-8MB/s. The real dogs (typically Windows clients)
generally deliver
2-4MB/s. We do have one Windows client that can sustain 10MB/s but nothing
else is
running on it at the time and it's a storage node.
