	More pertinent, today would be a 10GB comparison.
My systems regularly pegged a 1GB Intel card in sys-sys file copies
(125MB/s writes, 119MB/s reads)...
	Best speeds I've gotten off of 2x10GB-has been in the 700MB range,
though typical is more likely in the 200-400MB range.  HW/SW -- through
file server to null files tops out due to HW on both ends
(both Xeon Nehalams, one 12core_at_2.6 other 6core at 3.4).
(Intel cards between them direct connect.
