Yes,
Its also important to differentiate between routing and switching
needs. Not in the regular layer-3 and layer-2 concept, but in the
deployment environment you anticipate.
If you really need high throughput ports, nothing will beat a regular
switch (layer-2 or layer-3) because Cisco, 3COM

I would try to transfer from /dev/zero to /dev/null via the

It might be interesting,

2. if there is a lot of concurrency between the network nodes,
and
3. if there are really a lot of PCI cards fighting for the bus

It sounds sensible, but I have also learned that throwing hardware on a
problem is not always right.. Compared to shiny boxes from Cisco, HP
etc. a 500 Mhz router is for heavy duty networks. I would try some more
tweaking before replacing the box with some more spectular hardware.

It's correct that the card is plugged into a 32-bit 33 Mhz PCI slot. If
i'm not wrong, 33 Mhz PCI slots has a peak transfer rate of 133 MByte/s.

Thanks for the advice. Didn't do any difference, though.. Perhaps I
should try to increase the polling frequency..
