[Richard Carlson]

You're right, the TCP peak was 1.48Gbps from the show floor in Dallas to a 
storage cluster at Berkeley Laboratory.  Single applications using multiple 
stream.  Bottleneck link was 1.5Gbps provisioned circuit on Qwest link from 
convention center to DARPA's HSCC pop node.

This beat last years (SC'99) 1.2 Gbps rate Microsoft achieved running TTCP 
on a single PC with 2 Gbit Ethernet cards (Redmond to Portland).
