Hey Willy,
I would also love to see how you tuned everything to get the thru put
and performance.
Thanks
Joe

Willy,
The rest is "just" kernel parameter tuning. I'm thinking about
writing a tuning guide for 2.6 kernels. I've once again been
contacted by a big site this week-end which was dying under load
because the sysctls had not been tuned, and that's a shame :-/
I'd be very interested in how you attained these speeds (specific
kernel, specific tuning parameters). A guide would be great, but it's
not necessarily essential. We're seeing packet dropping issues in lab,
well before we reach wire speed. Perhaps it's network card / driver
related (e1000), and not kernel related.
Anything you could share before you've written the guide would be much
appreciated.
