I seem to recall that the method for setting "direct" changed so that it's not a binary option (net.isr.direct), but instead is a policy setting now (net.isr.dispatch). Try:
net.isr.dispatch="direct" That's what's set on our 9.1-STABLE systems: # sysctl net.isr net.isr.numthreads: 8 net.isr.maxprot: 16 net.isr.defaultqlimit: 256 net.isr.maxqlimit: 10240 net.isr.bindthreads: 1 net.isr.maxthreads: 8 net.isr.direct: 0 net.isr.direct_force: 0 net.isr.dispatch: direct # netstat -Q | head Configuration: Setting Current Limit Thread count 8 8 Default queue limit 256 10240 Dispatch policy direct n/a Threads bound to CPUs enabled n/a On Mon, Mar 11, 2013 at 9:22 AM, Freddie Cash <[email protected]> wrote: > You're right.
