hi Alex,

i've used PC Engines stuff in the past (many years ago) and was quite
happy with it, but based on reports from other users, it seems like the
1GHz CPU is not fast enough to route PPPoE at 1Gbps.   i think this is
at least partly because, even with net.isr.dispatch=deferred, PPPoE is
too single-core-bound. 

but i'd be interested to know if anyone has managed to achieve 1Gbps
PPPoE throughput on any of the PC Engines boards.

this looks quite interesting, thanks!
