I would like to run a survey on the performance of LANs in full operation. If you wish to participate, send me a description of the equipment used, the type of system e.g. CSMA/CD or token passing, the extent and type of cables e.g. coaxial or twisted pair, the number and type of terminals, work stations, minis and main frames on the net, the load on the system, the throughput claimed by the manufacturer, the actual throughput, and the percentage of time the system is available. Any other details that you think are of interest could be added such as your overall opinion as to the value of the system. I will post a summary to net.lan. Please indicate if you want me to delete your name in the summary. -- Harris Reavin UUCP: {umcp-cs!eneevax || seismo!rlgvax!elsie}!imsvax!harris
