For a single-hop S400 1394a bus (vulgo FireWire 400) I once calculated 44 MB/s bandwidth of asynchronous unified write transactions: http://marc.info/?l=linux1394-devel&m=109128028930225 That's at the physical layer; link layer and application layer performances are less than that of course. -- Stefan Richter -=====-===-- =-=- =-=== http://arcgraph.de/sr/ _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
