I have look for years.  There is no creature I have found that isn't a piece of 
$20,000 1394 test equipment.

There is a way to possible determine it, but it is a purely academic exercise.

Take two Win XP PCs with Firewire host bus adapters and connect them end to end.
Load the Firewire network adapter (IP over 1394) on both
Get one of the many freeware IP network stress testers that will slam UDP echo 
packets between two hosts at max speed.
Get the data throughput numbers in packets per second.  You will need to know 
the size of the IP packet and then convert packets to bits (make sure to 
include the IP header overhead) and you have the b/s value you are looking for.

Subject: [Flexradio] FireWire Speed Test?

Looked on the internet but cannot find a test utility that will measure the 
speed on an installed firewire circuit.

Anyone know of one or some way of doing this?
