I intend to connect the Gig-E interfaces to a Fast-E network: http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/perf.html >> For maximum performance, consider using gigabit Ethernet cards, even if not connecting to gigabit networks, as they have much more advanced buffering. << http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2004/05/06/pf_developers.html >> Even if you're only dealing with 100Mbit links, using gigabit cards like em(4) or sk(4) will improve performance as these cards are designed to handle much higher numbers of packets per second than 100Mbit cards. << I don't know how much better the performance will be, but OpenBSD developers have repeatedly suggested using Gig-E interfaces. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
