Yup, the PCI bus is (most of) the problem here too. Can't reproduce it. Maybe they fixed it in the 8100L rev.? I tried a ping -f -s 22 to hit it with 64 byte packets. I also had traffic going to the onboard gig and it wasn't impacted (granted the source was a 100bit link tied to the gig link). I'm running variants of -stable (FreeBSD 4.7 and later) on this hardware. Doug A. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
