Hi Roger,

I was wondering whether you have tried running HINT 
on your system. HINT reveals many of the characteristics
of the system. 

Please refer to 
http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/HINT/HINThomepage.html
for more details.

I would also like to point out the other tool NETPIPE
http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/netpipe/ for varying the 
communication with time.

Thanks,

todi
