I did a test a few years back with two old Mac's, I had eight commercial quality videos flying about through the Firewire setup at the same time and it didn't even burp once. Audio even at 192KHz is nothing compared to the video streams.
Disclaimer: that was on MAC's, they handle video like a duck takes to the water, these were however very old Mac's, 8500's with 350MHz G3 CPU's. Has anyone run optimized DSP code on a PPC MAC with Altivec?
