Did a couple of full runs on the maxi yesterday, after some generalizations in the network stack. No changes expected, none observed. 58 mins to 900k. But I also managed to get a good baseline for my new test WAN, which is now dual-homed with two 2.5Gbps NICs, each on their own dedicated 2.5 Gbps router and modem, one to a fiber line and the other to cable. Each measures 2.3 Gbps independently on speedtest.net, though upload on the fiber is 10x that of the cable (400 Mbps vs. 40). The upload speed doesn't have have a material impact on perf at either level.
