Hi Miles Xu,
I add another host in the mix, it is alfa, an Ubuntu 8.04 AMD64 with
Realtek 8169 Gigabit Ethernet. Not a perfect candidate for GE test, but
at least making the problem isolated between Solaris and Linux.
From charlie, the host having 82541 to alfa
1. Using original driver from snv b_103
r...@charlie # scp sol-10-u6-ga1-x86-dvd.iso de...@alfa-storage:/home/dedhi
de...@alfa-storage's password:

| 337 MB - stalled -^CKilled by
signal 2.
Taking too long, many stall.... more than 10 minutes I kill it
2. Using e1000-orig from you
r...@charlie # ls -la /kernel/drv/amd64/e1000g*

now the system is more stable. However, the performance still have many
rooms for improvement.
For example Fast Ethernet speed is not that many different, it will
clock at ~10 MB/s, where this driver clock in at ~13 MB/sec.
Since charlie is having rge0 onboard interface, using it is faster than
the Intel 82572 PCI-e, it can clock in at ~19.5 MB/s.
