I saw your post.  Here at Oregon State University we've got a Meiko CS-2.
Application-to-application message latency is about 8 microseconds for a
DMA transfer.  If you want to know when the transfer is done, you can set
up and use channels.  The latency for a channel communication is about 18
microseconds.  We've measured 40 Mbytes per second bandwidth on long
messages.

Hope this helps,

Mike Quinn
