You can get around 960Mbps with iperf on a back to back 1Gbps link between two PCs. On a 10Gbps link one can get about 7.5Gbps, the limitation is the PCI-X bus.

Subject: maximum data ratesDear all,I try iperf on 100 Mbps link & it is able to generate tcp traffic up to 97 Mbps. Any one try on Gigabit link & what is the maximum data traffic it can generate? Also, any one using web100 with iperf, because I think Iperf alone can generate near 100 Mbps & I am not too sure what web100 uses are.Thanks
