What i am wondering is how come we only get a few percentage improvement in throughput
Because he's maxing out the physical medium already.
All the headers for each 1500 byte packet still have to hit the physical wire, that isn't what is being eliminated. It's just what is going over the PCI bus to the card that is being made smaller. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
