I have two 3C509b's in my FreeBSD box. One is connected to the net, the other to my internal network. When I use the net from FreeBSD fairly extensively, I get fairly poor performance for transfers between it and other machines in the network (max I've seen is 70KB/s) however it often jumps past 140 KB/s when there's no traffic on the first NIC. I've got a P90 with 32MB of RAM and 64MB swap. I would think I could get rates up to 1MB/s internally without a problem (or at least 800KB/s) but I've never seen it go past about 150KB/s no matter what. What could I do to improve network performance, both internally, and when using both NIC's? Thanks!
