20MByte/s is in the same area I see. This value is 2-3 times below my expectations. Unfortunately there seem to be not so many gigabit ethernet users our users that care about network performance. I tried to compile the Realtek driver as a module, but the vendor driver is not working with my VLAN se...

I'm currently using Kernel 2.6.32.4 with the r8169 module. This is working without any reliabilty problem in 24/7 in a VLAN environment. The only bad point is the unexpected bad gigabit ethernet performance. I changed from a monolithic kernel to the r8169 module an everything still works like before...

No I currently use the driver from the kernel sources. My experience with vendor drivers is quite bad. The vendor drivers tend to lock you to old kernel versions as they are not actively maintained. Should I expect a significant performance improvement with the Realtek vendor driver?

Hello! I attached my fit-PC2 (z530) to a Gigabit switch and measured the network throughput via a TCP stream. The other machine is a C2D PC. My Kernel is a kernel.org 2.6.32 kernel with SpeedStep, limit to C2 and a on-demand governor. The data is is a sequence of /dev/zero bytes transfered with netc...

Hello all! Yesterday I installed my FitPC2 with a custom kernel 2.6.32 and immediately run into the hang problem. Limiting the C-States with processor.max_cstate=2 workarounds the problem, but is IMO not a solution. Using processor.latency_factor=6 did not solve the problem. The hang occured after a...
