Hello,
It has been suggested here that em(4) should give good network
performance on gigabit networks .
(http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=126605109632029&w=2).
Does this include only the non-Intels on the man page (if there is such
thing there)?
I was thinking to get my hands on an Intel PRO/1000 PT for routing/pf
till I read this on your site:
http://www.openbsd.org/crypto.html#hardware
"Forget about Intel. (If you want to buy gigabit ethernet hardware, we
recommend anything else... for the same reason: most drivers we have for
Intel networking hardware were written without documentation)."
Does Intel still not provide appropriate documentation or did that web
page expire?
Is there any other brand/driver which should be considered (more)
optimal in terms of performance+stability for openbsd routers on gigabit
networks?
best regards,
Giannis
