Hi,
i am looking for a good NIC from NIC to put on our quite busy router based
on freebsd 6.3 (soon 7.x)
I've found server NIC from intel and there is such a thing like scalable I/O
on windows and linux.
(from web page)
"load balancing on multiple CPUs Increases
performance on multi-processor systems by efficiently
balancing network loads across CPU cores when used
with Receive-Side Scaling from Microsoft or Scalable
I/O on Linux*"
Is such thing supported on freebsd ?
And one more question. Does anybody has some data what is difference on
desktop and server NIC from INTEL in pps or so.
I wonder how faster could be those server NICs
thanks
