  13. One thing to remember is that accessing files over Ethernet
  14. (DUX/NFS/etc) is essentially like accessing files on a disk that will
  15. _never_ go faster than 1MB/s. As you increase the quantity of "other"
  16. traffic, it will have a direct impact on the speed with which you can
  17. access files.
