[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] ARPANET Throughput

In addition to recounting old war stories, some of you might be interested in
the "calculated" performance of the ARPANET design.  A fairly extensive set of
calculations were published in the Proceedings of the 1972 Fall Joint Computer
Conference in a paper by McQuillan, Crowther, Cosell, Walden, and Heart (all of
BBN) titled "Improvements in the design and performance of the ARPA network" on
pages 741-754.
