Has anyone measured the performance of Appletalk internet gateways such
as the Fastpath or Gatorbox?  I am interested in attempting to determine
the thoughput for 1,2,3... Macs through each of these boxes using either
CAP or NFS.
 
We have done some preliminary measurements and comparisons with a Mac II
server and a Gatorbox, using the network application Blitz.
 
I would be interested in sharing information with anyone who has done
similar tests with Fastpaths or any other Apple Internet router.
