This is, I presume, being broken into to IP fragments? If so, the more sophisticated IP fragmentation logic in 2.6.16 necessitated by GigE might be responsible for 2.6.16's underperformance at this data point. Also, if so, you should investigate data points with higher degrees of fragmentation. Results are easier to analyze if they are given in number of frames transferred rather than bits per second. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
