I assume you are talking about installing a PV guest, and this is the 
only NIC that shows up ? You needn't worry as this is a virtual NIC, 
there is actually nothing explicitly limiting data rates as there is 
with a real NIC (where rates are determined by hardware).
The actual rate achieved will be limited by the real NICs in the 
host, and the ability of the networking thread in Dom0 to shift the 
bits around.
