<snip> I think we are having a terminology problem here. Are you meaning 30mb/s as in 30 megabits per second (30% of 100TX speed) or do you mean 30 MB/s as in 30 Megabytes/sec? I think in rereading you post you are meaning Megabytes but using the terminology for megabits. So here's what I've done to nearly saturate gig-e. Keep in mind that I have 15k SAS drives and intel gig-e adapters that aren't sitting in 33mhz 32bit PCI slots, single IDE/SATA drives are going to be a bottleneck as are 33mhz 32bit PCI NICs. This is on RELENG_6_3 net.inet.tcp.sendspace=262144 net.inet.tcp.recvspace=262144 kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=1048576 ifconfig em0 mtu 9014 (You'll need a switch that supports jumbo frames to do this) iperf shows wire traffic around 969 mbps and FTP runs at 110 Megs/sec scp/sftp appears to be cpu bound at 45 Megs/sec, and NFS with TCP mounts and send/receive packets set to 16384 manages about 90 Megs/sec. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel PGP: 8A48 EF36 5E9F 4EDA 5A8C 11B4 26F9 01F1 27AF AECB
