I missed that, and that answers the "was it a GigaBytes verses Gigabits

Very nice, but doing this with 1514-byte packets is the low-hanging
fruit. (9K packets? That's the fruit that falls off the tree and
into your basket while you're napping :-).) The more interesting limit:
how many 40-byte packets per second can you shovel into this system
and still have all of them come out the other end?
