I was trying out the ttcp command to get throughput numbers (I've just now found out about it...). I probably should know this, but it's been a while since I've read anything about throughput -- what is an acceptable value for throughput? For example, I ran a test between my PC and the Cisco switch it's directly connected to (100mbps connection, full duplex). It came back at around 17mbps. Is this normal, or should it be higher? I know it will be a fair bit less than the theoretical maximum, but I wasn't sure how much less. I don't see any errors on the port.
Thanks!
