Do not have direct use of this motherboard. We have some similar M/Bs
from SuperMicro (same chipset and same GigE NICs).

General M/B performance is good. The GigE is not too pleasure.
The Incoming TCP is about 350 Mb/s, and out going TCP is only 270,
which is limited by interrupt (98% CPU -- 2.8 GHz -- used for interrupt).
Either the driver or the Intel NIC is not functioning properly, but we do not
have time to investigate.
