HI all,

I observed there is huge network performance drop from linux 2.4 to 2.6 with
the same setup (No hardware changes..). The results are taken in PIV
processor with D-Link network card... with iperf ... Can some body help me
why such a huge difference... in TCP stream...

In linux 2.4 (Redhat 9)

DLink
TCP UDP
Tx 94.3Mbps Tx 95 Mbps
Rx 94.2 Mbps Rx 95 Mbps

In linux 2.6.10 (Fedora Core 4)
DLink
TCP UDP
Tx 64.3 Mbps Tx 87 Mbps
Rx 88.1 Mbps Rx 95 Mbps


Thanks & Regards
Eshwar
