Hi all, cpuset is the command to set a cpu affinity, there are details @ http://bramp.net/blog/post vmstat -z is the command you need to determine whether there is contention for mbufs. although the cpu usage does not suggest the system is memory constrained. Regards Ray Kinsella On Mon, Aug 3

If you go to FreeBSD 8 you will get the improved stack code, and the RX/TX queue pairs will be pinned to cpus. It should improve performance. Make sure you have enough mbuf memory allocated, try increasing the descriptors. Jack On Mon, Aug 3, 2009 at 3:26 AM, Invernizzi Fabrizio < fabrizio.inve
