I am running 2.2.2R and i have a 16bit kingston ehternet card which probes
as
NE2000 16 bit.  I host several sites and have a fair amount of traffic.

i was wondering if i would notice a performance difference if i upgraded to
a
32bit PCI card with all the trimmings. or should i not even bother.  please
let me know.

thanks in advance!
