This is the page I refer to when I'm curious.  I didn't create it, but
it is about how I would do it if I did create a list.  :)

Subject: [H] Various interface/bus thoughput specs

I have been searching the internet for specs for various interface and
bus varieties. Of course, these are theoretical maximum throughputs, and
actual real world results would be different, but I just wanted a list
to easily compare the different values. Any comments, corrections or
glaring inconsistencies? Also, would you be willing to add your real
world results from benchmarks for some of these values?

Thanks in advance,
