Hi, Yes, for 1500 MTU these aren’t too bad. One thing to note, using the TCP_STREAM option does not take advantage of zero-copy and possibly checksum offload on the transmit side. You should use the TCP_SENDFILE option for that. We typically use options such as: netperf

[PATCH] [POWERPC] Optimize counting distinct entries in the relocation sections

When a module has relocation sections with tens of thousands worth of entries, counting the distinct/unique entries only (i.e. no duplicates) at load time can take tens of seconds and up to minutes. The sore point is the count_relocs() function which is called as part of the architecture specific
