Hi Andrew
    I have a T2000 1Ghz 16 CPU's I'm running what came with the
system which is Generic_127111-09, which is not U4, not sure what
update that is. I did do a quick test before I upgrade those machines,
with the same parameters as before. What I have is Streams MDT,
and Streams LSO

    MDT 1500 1.2G
    LSO 1500  692Mb/s
    MDT 9000 2.1G
    LSO  689Mb/s

    Given the numbers you have shown, you've now raised my
expectations of sparc, thanks. It's not clear why LSO is fixed
at ~690Mb/s but I'm going to upgrade the systems and get
onto Nevada see what I get after that.

    thanks
    Frank
