How did this turn out? Any luck? Im seeing this same problem with my e1000, now I did enable rx/tx flow control, I reniced kswapd and I changed vm.min_free_kbytes to 65536, and the problem went away.

It would be nice with a "cleaner" solution though.


What kernel are you using?
Are you doing a lot of block IO as well?

I am using 2.6.11.8.

Yes, the server is a fileserver for both the internet (~10Mbit) and internally (1Gbit e1000). Hardware is pretty old so is pretty heavily loaded and with 256MB RAM.
