Hi, Paul :
     I am a system engineer. I am studying the FreeBSD with the giga
NIC.
     Now, I used the FreeBSD 3.4 and Alteon AltNIC to test the giga
function. When I use this included driver and MTU=1500 ( I have changed
the tcp window size to 65536). I got the good response. But, when I
changed the MTU to 9000, this system would not run smoothly. We
obviously found the delay (very serious).
     Could you help me to solve this question ?  Is it the memory buffer
problem ?

(My equipments:
    1. HP LPr server with 1GB ram (PIII 500)
    2. Alteon giga NIC for PCI
    3. FreeBSD 3.4
    4. Alteon switch 180 Plus
    We use this server for the www server and the access hit rate was
very high. )

Thanks!


Oyster Liu
