It depends on the switch, the kind of data the 10 computers are transmitting and where that data is destined (same machine, different machines, a combination). Even if you have a 10 BER Testers setup sending raw 10Mbps traffic it still depends on the switch itself and what the switch can handle.

What problem are you trying to solve or are curious about?
