Better, bigger, faster hardware.
Off the top of my head:
Multiple CPUs
Multiple NICs on separate PCI buses
The fastest PCI bus and front-side bus you can get
Maybe, just maybe, AMD boards might be able to handle more interrupts -
since every packet generates an interrupt [0] - because of their
differing hardware architecture to Intel. That's a suggestion and not a
scientifically proven statement!
[0] This may not be true on some hardware and some operating systems,
since the packets can be aggregated if they're small and several sent up
the bus to interrupt the CPU at the same time.
The problem is that there's almost no benchmarks available, because
every single system in different.
