Performance problems for BlueArc?

It has been over 1.5 years (YEARS!) since BlueArc first
started selling their FPGA-based "silicon server" and
they have yet to release industry standard results for
SPEC (http://www.spec.org/osg/sfs97r1/results/).

This SPEC File System Benchmark has results for EMC,
NTAP, IBM, HP, Procom, Auspex, etc., etc., etc., yet
BlueArc can not or will not produce results for this
file system test?

It seems to me that maybe BlueArc has really great
performance with a single open file streaming data to
it but falls flat on its FPGA face when dealing with
a high multi-user file system load?

Can someone from BlueArc comment on this issue? This
would seem to me to be an issue that needs to be addressed
before a customer would even consider this system for a
general file server replacement.
