I do not have experiences with Gigabit lan (even though the
computers now often have the adpater, the switch is still not
as popular for home uers and average office users).

But the following sites may provide some real data.
http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000339.html (more

http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=3111&p=20
