Hi Volker,

[this isn't important, but ...] none of us here in my office are
networking gods, but our heads collectively exploded when we read that
last sentence.  Surely that's impossible ... you can't transfer 500
Gigabytes-per-second over a 10-Gigabit-per-second link ...... can you
?

Am I having a braino, or did you make a typo ?

:-)

Cheers
