I've seen huge improvements in performance replacing hubs with switches,
particularly where there's a lot of NFS usage. The first time we did this
was about four years ago in an office where they had about 8 diskless Linux
workstations booting off an SCO OpenServer box on a 10BaseT network.
Replacing the 10BaseT hub with a 10BaseT switch there fixed problems we had
when booting the diskless workstations, and we're still running the same
server unchanged.
