It's just a shame that fast computers with fast HDDs, and fast network cards don't perform to spec.
I miss my optical switches and raid arrays  (I used to get sustained throughput of over 80MB/s)

You need to factor in cable length, connection speed (gigabit, 100Mbit etc...), MTU, what layer of the OSI model you're talking about, TCP? UDP? Routed? Switched? Transparent? |

It's only a layer 2, 1Gbps switch, nothing sophisticated. I'd hazard a guess that Windows 7 carries a lot of overheads. I disabled IPv6 (which seems to be on by default on W7) and it seems to have improved the throughput by a little - achieved 13MB/s \o/
