dmesg says:
fxp0: Microcode loaded, int_delay: 1000 usec  bundle_max: 6
fxp1: Microcode loaded, int_delay: 1000 usec  bundle_max: 6
But it only appears to do anything on the fxp1 (the external one)

From systat -vm:
~3000 interrupts
~500 interrupts

from netstat -I fxp0 -in 1:
input ~3000 packets per second

from netstat -I fxp1 -in 1:
input ~1700 packets per second
