Look for a CPU (thread) that might be 100% utilized; Also look to see
if that CPU (or CPU's) has a larger number in the "ithr" column than all
other CPU's. The idea here is that you aren't getting much out of the
T2000 if only one

Well, I certainly don't know why. I double-checked kernel revisions here,

In some tests I ran today, it seems to max out at 150MB/sec, although it
might have done better if the machine wasn't also duplicating an LTO3 tape
over fiberchannel at the same time (:-).

No, just the standard 1500 MTU.

We're only using two NIC's so far. We see 90-95 MBytes/sec on a single link
with the current setup. Without the squ

Greetings,
(1) Where might one find the binaries (Solaris pkgadd, if possible)
for filebench-1.0.0? Like several folks have mentioned, I've found
the (incomplete) sources at sourceforge, and binaries for older
versions are there. Have I missed something obvious?
(B) (:-) Is there a
