We are currently using this board: http://www.silicom-usa.com/downloads/pdf/PESB62.pdf It's currently running on 4.7 stable amd64. With 2.6GHz AMD opteron we managed to get around 400Mbps asynchronous throughput(the result may ofcourse vary depending on packet size and other factors), wich was twice as much as without it. We used iperf with UDP protocol for testing. All the best, Joosep
