I have experienced severe network bandwidth issues on all versions of -stable since 4.8, and yet I have never seen any discussion of these issues. The way I see these issues has come from having side-by-side boxes on the same 100M switch have wildly different bandwidth when talking to various remote sites. For instance, downloading ports, the newer box (post 4.8) regularly suffers under 1M bandwidth, while the 4.7 box merrily trots along at maximum speed. This seems somehow unrelated to the actual network hardware, as I have seen the same thing with fxp, de and rl cards. Has anyone explored network bandwidth issues in -stable recently? What can I do to work out these problems? Thanks. /Joe
