Back in the modem days, baud was (correctly) shorthand for bps. Wikipedia states that is no longer valid. > it's even 800, not 1000 Mbits per second... > Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Rough conversion (from the old days) was: 1 byte of data = 8 bits on disk = 10 bits of network traffic = 13 bits of encrypted (SSL) network traffic Data compression can reduce the traffic up to 50%. Maintaining 800 MB per second without compression may completely fill a gigabit network connection. The OP would want a second network connection to avoid running at full capacity and handle spikes. solprovider --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
