Hi all,

I enabled device polling on the em driver and cut the
cpu load  from 98%down to 55% ! This machine is a
network sniffer doing about 320k packetsper sec
(equally distributed over 2 gigE). Great job guys !

Are there any plans for implementing device polling
for the bge driver ? Are there any docs I could read
up to implement it myself ?

Thanks,-ansh
