My Problem seems to be related to the VIA-Chipset drivers in
Kernel.

My problem with the performance is not related to a specific
networkdriver. I have made multiple tests with multible networkcards.

I have not made any test with RELENG_5 and other mainboard's
w/o via chipsets. 

I have made the tests as described with RELENG_4 and RELENG_5
and only RELENG_5 has the problem with the VIA chipset.

The chipset is known as VIA MVP3.

best regards
michael
