I see 20 mbit/sec each to 3 hosts simultaneously (60 mbit total) using rsync over SSH, GIGE LAN. Files are the typical mix of user hosting files, mostly small with some big media.
The server uses an ext3 filesystem on 3ware hardware RAID-5 with 6 SATA drives at 500 GB each. Most hosts use either hardware RAID-1 or mdadm RAID-1 on SATA drives. All desktops are single-drive SATA.
