Simon, We've just ordered 4 servers and a gigabit switch to try and do exctly this kind of testing. If anyone has sugestions about a good/simple way of generating the load and graphing it that would be appreciated.
We did use Avalanche/reflector setup a while back on LVS with a 2.8GHz Celeron and we got: 840MB throughput on large packets 50,000 TPS on small packets It was using a small amount of keepalive (we were mimicking a documented coyote point/F5 test).
