Addendum, I have been testing a Jetway NF99FL-525, very similar to the earlier Jetway NF96FL-525, but contains 2x Intel PCI-e NIC's on the motherboard.
I ran my iperf tests again: 1) NF99FL-525, e1000e driver version 1.10.6, PCI-e <-> PCI-e yields 920 Mbps. 2) NF99FL-525, e1000e driver version 2.0.0.1, PCI-e <-> PCI-e yields 928 Mbps. 3) Recap: NF96FL-525, PCI-e <-> PCI yields 815 Mbps. Both boards runs at approx. 77% idle (via top) during the iperf test. With the Jetway NF99FL-525, because of the top notch PCI-e Intel NIC's, multiple internal interfaces/networks could be defined via VLAN's and a managed switch. This saves the cost of the daughterboard with the NF96FL-525. Options are good. The NF99FL-525 also supports the same Jetway daughterboard if needed.
