Greetings and Salutations: From: Mike Silbersack <silby@silby.com> > But on another laptop with the same processor, 8000 pps could effectively > freeze it. We believe this is because the network card on that machine > shares an IRQ with the sound card, making interrupt processing very > expensive. The sound card on my laptop is not enabled. Causes too many messages when I boot up and overwhelms the dmesg log file when I use the sound driver : pcm0: <ESS Technology Maestro-2> port 0xf800-0xf8ff irq 5 at device 8.0 on pci0 (4p/1r/0vchannels duplex default) > So, test out my attached patch with varying settings of maxfragspersecond > and see if it makes any difference for you. I attempted to apply the patch, but I think the date on my in_pcb.c is incorrect. What do I do to correct?: # ls -al /usr/src/sys/netinet/in_pcb.c -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 32712 Mar 28 06:29 /usr/src/sys/netinet/in_pcb.c GandalfBSD# patch < ip_maxfragspersecond.patch Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me... The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |diff -u -r /usr/src/sys.old/netinet/in_pcb.c /usr/src/sys/netinet/in_pcb.c |--- /usr/src/sys.old/netinet/in_pcb.c Sun Apr 17 18:05:05 2005 |+++ /usr/src/sys/netinet/in_pcb.c Thu May 12 21:47:39 2005 -------------------------- File to patch: ^C# # Thanks, Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------ Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards for they are subtle and quick to anger.
