Subject: sk98lin extremely slow transfer rate ASUS P5P800(2.6.17.7)
I am experiencing a very slow(32Kbytes per second) transfer rate on an
ASUS P5P800 mobo. This occurs on a special case where I am sending
individual 32Kbyte messages from a second server.
I suspect the hardware, but am not sure how to come up with a 'good'
regression test for this issue.
Configurations I have tried:
1. If I swap out the ethernet adapter(tried a intel 10/100 and intel
10/100/1000) the transfer rate jumps up into the MBytes / second.
2. If I do 'other' network activity on the box, like scp'ing' files
around, the transfer rate for my 32Kbyte packets goes up into the Mbytes
/ second. So I am a little baffled with the behavior.
3. If I just 'scp' files around of various sizes the transfer rate goes
up into the Mbytes / second.
some of the relevant dmesg information:

The Marvel ethernet adapter is connected to a Linksys SD2005 10/100/1000
switch.
Any ideas why it would be doing this or a 'good' test for me to try?
