<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">One of the benefits of having a back
to back connection, is that you can use bonding mode balance-rr which gives
much higher throughput, when using two network cards. if yopu want to move
towards high bandwidth (10Gbit) it also saves a lot of money, as the 10Gbit-Switches
are quite expensive.</font>

<br><tt><font size=2>> I'm not an expert in benchmarking, but I will
do my best. I am open to<br>
suggestions on what and how to test.<br>
<br>
Honestly, I am no expert either. I guess the best way would be to
run a<br>
disk benchmark such as Bonnie on the primary server: once with and once<br>
without the switch. Any statistically significant difference between
the<br>
two would most likely be due to the switch.<br>
<br>
Due to the flooding in Thailand, we were unable to procure hard drives
last<br>
month. So, I shelved my storage project until August. As such,
I will not<br>
be able to help much until the late summer (or winter depending on the<br>
hemisphere).<br>
