Re: [OT] Recommendation for small Switch

All switches are not created equal. The cheap switches cannot switch at 
anywhere close to line rate. The ports may all be labeled 100Mbit or 
1Gbit, but you will never get anywhere close to that speed esp. if 
multiple ports are active on the cheap switches.

If you want real performance and a decent (but not rock bottom price), 
get a real cisco switch, or an HP procurve, or perhaps the dell switches.
