I don't know, myself, but I have a nice big archive of the mailing list here. So here are a few previous messages that you might find helpful.
http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-users/200304/msg00183.html: FWIW From my testing so far: - Ethereal can capture on a loopback address at speeds up to 2.8GBit/s on a 2x1.5GHzP4 IBM Intellistation running Linux. - Ethereal can capture on 100Mbit/s Ethernet in both directions on crappy old Pentium II with 64MB RAM without dropping a frame when running Linux. - I have yet to be able to capture more than 50-60Mbit/s on a Win32 machine without significant (>10%) packet loss. Ethereal on Win32 can't capture from the loopback.
