I have heard (from some forgotten source ) that the access mechanism used on Ethernet will not allow a REAL csma/cd network to achieve more than about 50%-60% network utilisation. Can someone point me in the direction of a paper, article, personal experience, etc. that supports or refutes this claim? Many thanks.
