tsm:tsm_throughput

Throughput over a network can be expected to reach saturation at around 80 percent of its rated capacity.
Efficiency indicates the percentage of maximum throughput rate that can realistically be achieved.
This leads to the following maximum throughputs that can be obtained for given networks:

Network Mb/sec MB/sec GB/hr % Efficiency
Ethernet 10 1.0 5.7 40
Token Ring 16 1.6 5.7 80
Ethernet 100 10.0 17.6 40
FDDI 100 10 35.2 80
ATM 155 15.5 34.1 50
SPSwitch 120 264 50
T3 45 4.48 15.8 80
T1 1.54 .16 .56 80
Gigibit Ethernet 1GB 100 tbd 80
