Try throwing in another network card and see if it helps. Next step is to try twinking tcp settings (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314053) and see if that helps. Beyond that, try playing the update driver game. If you are still having problems, try receiving bigger and bigger results to see where problem occurs. 1-2k range suggests mtu problem, 4-8k range suggests tcp receive window problem. Beyond that, I'm stumped, uh, buy Opteron? :) Merlin ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
