Opinions on "best" NIC for high-touch applications

[Chance Whaley]

All,

I have an application where I am doing quite a bit of high-touch packet
fiddling and I am looking for opinions on which "standard" Gb NIC
has the best driver support in 5.2 or CURRENT.

In my dream world I am looking for something that supports:
	- IRQ mitigation / polling (absolute must)
	- PCI-X   (absolute must)
	- HW checksumming
	- Scatter / Gather
	- IPsec
	- Jumbo frames
	- VLANs

Thoughts??
