That would be useful, thanks--if it comes with some details about the
setup.

I'm not so curious about percent improvement, as how to predict the
performance on a given network.

If server-to-server copy looks like it's normally able to use close to
the available bandwidth between the two servers, and if a traditional
read-write-copy loop is similarly able to use the available bandwidth,
then I can figure out whether server-to-server copy will help on my
setup.
