I have a dual p3-1Ghz on a Abit VP6 board. Everything is working well except
the network card. I have some nfs mounts and i'm using 4096 wsize and rsize
for performance. However when eth0 and any other card are sharing an IRQ the
result of a ping to the server with a packetsize of 4096 is this:
$ ping -s 4096 fs
PING loki.internal (192.168.0.40): 4096 data bytes

--- loki.internal ping statistics ---
15 packets transmitted, 15 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 1.6/203.5/755.3 ms
... but if i remove the other card (in this case a Miro Video TV Card) the
ping times all drop to about 2ms.
Is this drop in performance normal or is it a bug ? As an aside, anything
lower than 1024 packetsize doesn't slowdown.
Thanks
