Couple more things that come to mind:
make sure you increase mbuf pool, nmbclusters up to at least 262144, and the
driver uses 4K clusters if
you go to jumbo frames (nmbjumbop). some workloads will benefit from
increeasing the various sendspace
and recvspace parameters, maxsockets and maxfiles are
I believe that "pciconf -lvc" showed that the cards were in the correct
slot. I'm not sure as to what all of the output means but I'm guessing
that " cap 10[a0] = PCI-Express 2 endpoint max data 128(256) link
