Hi James - Yes I tested this also....it still will not go above 50%...at first I though it may be the carriers link, but I also tested the bidirectional/simultaneous test, and it produced similar results (Single direction test were fine.) Single direction tests are fine.
I think its a problem with IPerf, potentiallly the server nics...Or maybe IPerf is "limited" to the bandwith of the link (1G, but can only send/receive a "total" (50% in both directions) There are a few reports of issues with the bidirectional tests, but I cant locate any "fixes".....so Id prefer to spend time looking at a more robust (proven) testing tool.

Run two copies simultaneously? That way you can also tweak the two unidirectional streams independently.
