Depends on the byte size of the packet.  If most of your throughput is
standard 1500 byte packets, you should have little to no problem.

If someone starts blasting out 64 byte packets at wire speed though,
your link will be toast long before traffic ever reaches 100Mbps.

Anyone know the maximum packets per second that can traverse a 100MB
internet link. From what I've been able to gather its about 8300 or so? Is
this number accurate? Do connections just start to timeout once I hit this
limit? I'm a little worried about this because we are fast approaching this
mark and am afraid were gonna hit it before we max out are available
bandwidth? Anyone ever run into this situation or am I just paranoid?
