The arguments include the overhead.  So, not accounting for the AAL5
trailer and padding, multiply cells per second by .424 to get the Kbps
value.  On certain platforms, we did encounter a bug that resulted in
the router (or router blade as it was an RPM we were working with) that
inserted traffic at at rate that was roughly 3% more ... but that was a
documented bug.
