I have an NT box here and the max xmit over a Linksys 10/100 card
(with the Linksys chipset) is push ~3.3MB/sec and pull 2.8MB/sec
to FreeBSD machines with fxp cards.

My question is:

How does FreeBSD do with these cards? can i expect such abysmal
performance on FreeBSD as well?  Or is it just NT's driver, or NT
itself being a dog?

Note i can get over 11MB/sec between FreeBSD machines with the 
fxp cards I have....

My "benchmark" was just ftp'ing files to/from NT box with the
command line ftp program...

Yes i have the latest NT drivers from Linksys.
