Hi,
I checked the RCW(RCWLR and RCWHR) and they are the same(taken from
NOR), S3 and S4 switches are the same too.
I will take a look at the priority levels on CSB.

One possible cause is the two board has different RCW.
So that the freq of core/csb/.... Is different.

Subject: MPC8313e RDB rev A4 and rev C network throughput
Hello all,
I have made some test on network throughput with MPC8313e RDB
revA4 and revC.
Some have mentioned that CSB(Coherent System Bus) frequency
or untuned TCP/IP stack, could cause decrease of network throughput.
**Test results
-on MPC8313e RDB revA4 with kernel 2.6.20 and u-boot 1.1.6
created with
ltib-mpc8313erdb-20070824
iperf -c 172.16.0.1 -l 2m -w 256k -throughput is 510Mbps
-on MPC8313e RDB revA4 with kernel 2.6.23 and u-boot 1.3.0 generated
with ltib-mpc8313erdb-20081222
iperf -c 172.16.0.1 -l 2m -w 256k
-throughput is 510Mbps
-on MPC8313e RDB revC with kernel 2.6.23 (the same u-boot, kernel and
rootfs as in rev A4, only dtb file differs)
iperf -c 172.16.0.1 -l 2m -w 256k
-throughput is 360Mbps.
Have someone made such measurements? Any ideas why MPC8313e RDB revC
gives worser throughput than revA4?
