Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey! Well, as $SUBJ states, i am looking for anyone who actually has been using any Gigabith Ethernet cards. I would specifically like to know - what are the current speeds they get, how soon and how hard do they hit the limit of PCI (do we have a 64 bit PCI support? if so - how much perfomance gain does it give?) Also, are there devices out there that use Gigabit ethernet better then that (closer to actual Gigabit) and if so - do they affect slower devices on the net? (interrupt saturation comes to mind) Thanx! --Ugen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
