The results I obtained with STGT over iSER on an SDR network are as
follows (direct I/O with  xdd):
* 7.4 MB/s for reading data in blocks of 512 bytes and 8.9 MB/s for writing.
* 363 MB/s for reading data in blocks of 65536 bytes and 346 MB/s for writing.
* 890 MB/s for reading data in blocks of 10 MB and 900 MB/s for writing.

Please keep in mind that when running a filesystem on top of iSCSI
that all transfers happen in units of 64 KB or less.
