Post your performance results
I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of performance everyone is getting with IO Meter so that we can compare what we're getting. So I thought we could all post our results in this thread...

PC: Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop, 2GHz Pentium 4-M, 768MB RAM
Network: Broadcom BCM4306-based 802.11g wireless miniPCI card, 3com OfficeConnect 11g access point, 100M Ethernet connection through Zyxel hub /router to NV+
Performance:
Writes - 3.70 MB/s (when it's working - see below)
Reads - 1.07 MB/s (wtf?)
Writes seem pretty quick given the available bandwidth, though it has a habit of freezing for several seconds at a time which brings the long-term average throughput right down. Reads, however, progress steadily but slowly.
