A few points:
- Polling and SMP are compatible in 6.1. In fact, they were compatible
in earlier versions too; basically it's just the compile-time check
that had to be fixed.
- You may have to adjust some parameters in the kern.polling sysctl

The limited testing I've done on a Sun V20z at work suggests that you
can get better routing throughput in interrupt mode than polling mode.
YMMV and this is before tweaking the polling parameters. (My testing
also suggests that I don't really need to do any tweaking because

Hi,
I'm trying to setup polling in my box. I'm using these options:
options DEVICE_POLLING
options HZ=1000
and in the rc.conf:
ifconfig_bge0=inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx polling media 1000baseTX
mediaopt full-duplex
But I always get some packet loss.
I'm using FreeBSD 6.1 and SMP
