Today I had some time for testing AND physical access ...
With bge0 bound to 100baseTX / full-duplex the transfer breaks down to
<100kBytes/sec, with 1000byseTX its about 250-350kBytes/sec, should be
~10MBytes/sec
ifconfig bge0 down
ifconfig bge0 media ...
ifconfig bge0 up
I will do some more and detailed testing next time I'm in our data
center, including the netstat-output etc.
Hmm. if_bge buggy?
But, same machine on a FE-Switich worked perfectly (with 100MBit).
By default ifconfig says:

Any idea?
