Re: FreeBSD-6.1/amd64 bge(4) driver performance problems


Thanks for the advice!

I've retuned back the Broadcom NIC to autoselect mode and now the transfer speed is 7-8MBps which is very great improvement compared to 200kBps.

The registered D-Link speed, of 10Mbps, is still ahead but now the things look different.

I tried test scp(1) to a remote machine, using one of the BCM5721 NICs.
The average speed which has been reached was 200kBps.

Can you try forcing the interface back to 100mbit, half duplex? I've
seen issues with a switch before resulting in exactly that kind of
performance.
