Thanks Randolph! That's interesting to know! What was the hardware you were using? Does your bcast fail at the exact same point too? > > I don't know what caused it though.

For network saturation I guess I could use something like mrtg to monitor the bandwidth used. On the other hand, all 32 servers are connected to a single dedicated Nexus5000. The back-plane carries no other traffic. Hence I am skeptical that just 41943040 saturated what Cisco rates as a 10GigE fabric. But I might be wrong. -- Rahul
