Hi All,

I am scp-ing data between LAN machines both of which have 10/100 ethernet
cards, going through a 10/100 router.  Using blowfish, I get about say
55682.80 kbits/sec (as shown in iptraf).

How much should I be getting considering the speed of the cards?

What kind of data?  If it is lots of small files, the bottleneck could
be reading them from the hard drive.  But ~7MB/s sounds reasonable to
me...the best I've seen on a 100mbit network is about 10MB/s through
TCP.
