Do you have a comparison with Linux under the same circumstances?

I had a disk with 64bit already installed. I will try with 32bit tomorrow. I can also try FreeBSD AMD64 on the box to see how it does.

ifstat gives a bit of an odd output, but its the same sort of pattern where adding a second stream in the same direction, slows down the first one. On the box R2
...

The box is totally responsive throughout with no packet loss on the management interface.... However, it seems quite a bit slower than FreeBSD when its tweaked with ADAPTIVE_GIANT removed... But again, this is 64bit so not quite apples to apples yet. Also, I need to check the default driver config to see if their NAPI or whatever its called is enabled. More tests to come.

More excellent data, thanks.  I have some changes on the drawing board
that should significantly improve forwarding and bridging in the em
driver.  Do you have a limit on how much more time you can spend on
these tests?  It might be a week or more before I have anything that can
be tested.
