This paper discusses the performance aspects ofthe joint Mayo/IBM PACS project. It includes performance measurements made during Phase Zero, and the early stages of Phase One. It also considers the network traffic load distribution and bandwidth utilization for the final Phase One topology. Based on earlier performance measurements and projected load distributions, performance projections are made for the completed Phase One PACS network. Finally, the paper discusses the approach being taken by the department of Computer Science at North Dakota State University to develop a useful model of this PACS network.
