I think we unfortunately hit bug id 6888015, that pcie variants of realtek 8168/8111 series are very slow in transmitting. It is caused by the workaround for the hang issue. :-( I made a workaround for the slow down issue, but I have not find a sponsor to put back the fix into opensolaris. I'll prepare the binary of rge against the slow down issue soon. > BTW, using msi_enable=0 or replacing rge with the > gani driver plunged my throughput to less than 1Mbps. Oh, I didn't know the issue of gani. I just found gani had an issue to treat msi interrupts. I think I can fix it soon. regards, -masa > > annis -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
