Offloading the checksum is not the same as a full TCP offload. A "true" TOE card offloads ALL TCP processing, not just the checksum. >I think a great deal of tuning would be required to achieve anywhere >near 10 GB w/ a single TCP stream. I think you can tune your heart out and you'll never get anywhere close. Maybe it's possible with a TOE card, but I haven't heard from anyone yet. _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
