Basic test from the plug "gcc55" to my PC "pc2":

gcc55 ~ # iperf -c pc2  -N -n 1000M
------------------------------------------------------------
Client connecting to pc2, TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 16.0 KByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[  3] local 192.168.1.118 port 45282 connected with 192.168.1.101 port 5001
[  3]  0.0-51.5 sec  1000 MBytes    163 Mbits/sec

My PC has:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller [10ec:8168] (rev 02)

Note: the plug was running two compilations by farm users during the
network test and the kernel has lock checking enabled so it's
unlikely an upper bound :).
