I suggest the next step would be to update the NIC firmware as there are some performance and stability updates available that deal with similar issues. Please see the Intel Networking support webpage at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24769 and look for the NVMUpdatePackage.zip. This should take care of several of the things Stefan might describe as "sketchy" :-). sln (Sent again, hopefully without gmail adding html and thereby getting it blocked from the kernel mailing lists...) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
