Yes. The APU maxes out around ~670Mbit/s using iperf [1]. I confirmed as much in correspondence with PC Engines too. Personally I _suspect_ it should be able to go much faster, but haven't got one to investigate yet.
The 1.2GHz PPC based router is hitting ~940Mbit/s (the most you can expect from a GE interface with protocol overheads) using iperf. I don't have a reference for that, but I've got one of the devices here and have performed that test myself.

- dtaht 12y agoThank you for the performance statistics. We have done a lot of work on other hardware platforms to get them up to being able to saturate gigE or higher, with tuning and things like "Byte Queue Limits" support. The problem with the ppc thing is that most likely it has bufferbloat in a blob we can't fix. (news to the contrary welcomed). And hearing that the APU peaks at 670Mbit is disappointing, but perhaps someone will get some time to profile it and figure out why it is so bad - certainly we get gigE easily with intel based hardware.
