One is with a bucket, http://www.imthird.org/the-limiting-factor-concept, but for comparisons I like a simpler one For an example, imagine a large letter "Y" with the stem labelled "throughput", one arm labelled "latency" and the other "RPM". There's a dotted-line circle drawn over it so that the two arms touch the circle, and the stem sticks out through it. The diameter of the circle is the "goodness" of the connection, and you can line up diagrams like this for Bell, Rogers and Telus and see that they all have fine throughput but lousy latency and RPM. And it extends to multiple dimensions as well as multiple suppliers, so you could have a five-legged Y if you wanted. I like three, myself. I first saw this used for nutrients in the first edition of "Diet for a Small Planet", but the editors found it too nerdy and talked the author into taking it out (:-() --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.
