Gigabit Eternet throughput on XScale


Hi

I am developing a digital video camera, and I am looking for a suitable
RTOS.

The camera shall stream real time video on an Ethernet interface, with
several cameras. As far as I can see, eCos has gigabit Ethernet support.
My question is, what is the max throughput one can achieve, running eCos
on an Intel XScale PXA250 400 MHz.

I have read that, since eCos is a hard real time RTOS, it is not
suitable for high bandwidth tasks. In that case I guess gigabit Ethernet
would be overkill on a 400 MHz XScale processor. Is that true?
