        Also consider using Andrew Tridgell's
        dbench/tbench/smbtorture suite in this process: it
        is mathmeatically comparable to NetBench, runs on
        smaller numbers of load-generationg machines, and
        can give better breakdowns into the disk component,
        then network component and the on-server component
        of the available performance.

        I also have some results from SPARC Linux: send me email.
