i presume so, yes. I have some tweaks in the kernel to duplicate packets in the kernel and get higher peak rates, but the patches for that are broken at the moment. > Ok. Will normal netstat do ?

Is there a counter rolling over somewhere ? no idea. BTW it seems that you are adding in and out traffic. when i said 260kpps i meant that the box was receiving 260kpps (actually more) and transmitting 260kpps. On the other hand i had basically no firewall work, so that is in line with your numbers. cheers luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
