I was just wondering what do you guys achieve as a maximum file transfer speed through gigabit ethernet?
I've seen numbers close to 40MB/s, however mostly it's around 30MB/s.
I tried to double (or at least increase) this by using 'lagg' for two similar servers who both have two gigabit NICs. The speed however halved when using roundrobin protocol and almost remained the same when using loadbalance protocol. I had the best results when uploading from one server to my single PCI gigabit NIC desktop: close to 40MB/s.
I use a unmanaged gigabit ethernet switch, so lacp protocol could not be tested.
Any thoughts?
