Keep in mind also that the Raspberry Pi (at least the first one anyway) 
can only push around 1MB/s tops. The ethernet port is basically held on 
by the equivalent of a piece of string! They're suitable for a small 
mail or web server, or some sort of network probe, but not really for 
any large application.
