One upper limit is set by hardware. The E250 can use two PCI busses (if
you set the interface cards right), one standard (IIRC), one high-speed,
wide. The standard one has 32bit x 33 MHz = 1Gbit/s (minus protocol
overhead).

Thus maximum throughput will be below 1Gbit/s - whatever duplex on
network side.
