you may want to add these results to the netperf database. There is very
little fast ethernet data available yet, that would be quite helpful.
If you did not use netperf to measure bandwith, may I ask how you
proceeded?

If you do not know how to register netperf results, I can send you help.

Thanks,
Kimon.
