Polling is helpful to prevent livelock. Not sure if thats happening to you. What firewall (if any) are you using ? pf used to be a lot slower than ipfw.

The Yandex driver is at

but its against RELENG_6 only I think.


Another thing to try is to turn back on Fast Interrupt handling. I think its currently disabled.

In if_em.h, try adding

#define EM_FAST_IRQ 1

and then recompile the kernel or just driver.


We will try disabling TSO to see if anything changes.

If you have TCP in your app, it seems thats the thing to do according to the Intel developer.
