Bizarrely enough, that SFF I was detailing earlier in the week, which runs vista x64 and has a realtek 10/100/1000 controller...

...will pull data from my Nforce4 based fileserver at 85MB/s ! fastest I've ever ever ever seen out of it, the fileserver or my Buffalo 8 port GigE switch (which must be 5 years old now) jumbo frames aren't even supported by the switch!

I was flabbergasted!

You're right.

I checked the jumbo frames option and I seem to be topping out at around
35MBps.

I was hoping more :(

Although that's a 4X improvement over 10/100 I still want more!!!!!! :)

Could the windows TCP/IP Stack be culprit?


probably, they supposedly made it better in Vista but I haven't noticed it on my one Vista box. You are going to notice things are a faster in general, but nothing like you were expecting. Also if you detect a difference in
Jumbo frames  I will be surprised.
