Assume a large University campus, with 3 nodes (5k students, each with

There are 4 places that might be the limiting factor.
1) The wire might be full
2) The Ethernet chip might not be able to process packets at full wire speed.
3) The kernel's input dispatcher thread might run out of CPU cycles.
4) The client threads might run out of CPU cycles.
