Hi Jason,

That is just what I was looking for.  We are running the e1000 with 4 port
intel nic.  No worries on the hardware.

I will check out your suggestions and let you know what I end up using.

You mention the NIC changes as well as a good nic.  In your research how
much more performance did the ring buffer change and interrupt change have?

Any suggestions on what you use to load test your new configurations?

Neal
