Both peers are indeed 1Gbps.

Today I got hold of a good quality Netgear GS108T managed switch and repeated 
the tests. On your advice I reset the e1000g.conf file to its default 
configuration.

There is no major difference in the latest benchmarks - they are practically 
identical. Considering that everything was running full speed before the OS 
upgrade, this strongly points to the e1000g driver.

Here are some new stats from the server:

andrewhar...@seraph:~$ kstat -m e1000g -i 0
XOFFs_Recvd                     2
XOFFs_Xmitd                     0
XONs_Recvd                      2
XONs_Xmitd                      0
Xmit_TCP_Seg_Contexts           116597
Xmit_TCP_Seg_Contexts_Fail      0
Xmit_with_No_CRS                0

The XOFFs_Revd and XONs_recd are markedly lower than before, but 
Xmit_TCP_Seg_Contexts is now non-zero.

Should I start thinking about getting a different network adapter, or are there 
a few more things I can try?

Thanks,

- Andrew
