Firewall throughput measurement?

All:

Is there a "standardized" way of measuring throughput of a firewall?

I have a simple Linux box with two NICs serving as my firewall, and it works fine, but I can't help but wonder if it is a bottleneck between me and the internet (there are other machines that go through the firewall). I was wondering if there was a "conventional" way of measuring either the "throughput" of a firewall, or the latency it might be introducing.

Thanks in advance,
