mTCP FTP does support this. The full syntax for the get command is: get <server_file> [<local_name>] And for the put command: put <local_name> [<server_file>] The second parameter is optional and allows you to do the rename. This is similar to Unix command line clients. >> There are other issues with jumbo frames.

I think a better way to put it is that the packet driver design was not intended for 100Mb or Gigabit speed, and that the packet driver design becomes a limiting factor. For each packet you send you need to cause a software interrupt. For each packet received you need to take two software interrupts in addition to any hardware interrupts. For receiving packets a more advanced design would take the initial interrupt and then poll for a little bit to see if there were other packets to process, and for sending packets you would point to a list of buffer descriptors and just use one interrupt. On a low end Pentium system I've been able to get about 50% of the full line speed on a 100Mb PCI adapter. That system should have been able to saturate the line ...
