There's a lot of anecdotal evidence that replacing the rge driver with the gani driver can fix poor NFS and CIFS performance. Another option is to use an Intel NIC in place of the Realtek. Search the archives for "gani" or "slow CIFS" and you'll find several people who resolved poor performance by getting rid of the rge driver. While it's not hard evidence, it seems to indicate that there are problems with the driver (and most likely the hardware). -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
