Think of the packets as balls. The first machine is spending all its time waiting for the ball to bounce back to it before it an throw the next ball. This is the in flight time.

Sorry i cant follow you.
50000000000 total size 
50000000000÷1024 = 48828125kbytes
48828125÷1024=47683,715820313mbytes
47683,715820313÷1024=46,566128731gbyte
10gbits/s /8 = 1,5gbytes/s
46,566128731gbyte÷1,5gbyte/s=31,044085821 seconds
I guest some thing is not ok but should be like that i think.

In my setup I have two nodes connected via a 10 gigabit switch.  I ran iperf  and zeroMQ throughput (local_thr and remote_thr) to prove that I could achieve full bandwidth and I'm able to:iperf:   [ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
   [  3]  0.0-10.0 sec  11.5 GBytes  9.90 Gbits/sec

zeroMQ: 
   message size: 500000 [B]
   message count: 10000
   mean throughput: 2474 [msg/s]
   mean throughput: 9896.000 [Mb/s]

I then wrote a simple zeroMQ request reply test application to measure the "throughput" using REQ/REP socket.  In this application the client runs on one node and sends N (10000) messages each of size M (500000) and waits for the reply for each message.  The server running on another node receives the messages and sends a simple acknowledgment reply message.  The client calculates the "throughput" based on how long it took to send all messages and receive all replies. I'm seeing that it takes about 11 seconds to complete which gives a throughput of 0.12 Gbit /sec.  Are these results expected due to the nature of the request reply sockets?  Should I expect to be anywhere near the full 10Gbit bandwidth with this test?
