Was your data for day session only or 24 hour(midnight to midnight)?
This is what I get for 24 hour midnight to midnight via the DTN velocity
satelite 230K with 100% clear skies.
ESU2 fed by ByteRunner PCI-100H into a dual 600mhz cpu.  I recently replaced
the PacCommware TE920 with the ByteRunner with faster UART and larger byte
buffer.  Charting seems to run noticeably better at the open after replacing
the serial port.  Some traders experience a pause in TS charting right at
the open+ a little.  Could be my imagination, but it seems like the
ByteRunner has reduced the opening bottleneck.  The ByteRunner is a PCI card
and the TE920 is an ISA plus they have different drivers.  Would be
interesting to compare these numbers with someone running on the ethernet
port via the dynastore-dtn and with someone running at the 400K speed.
