So I pushed out an update for Fedora Core 5 users yesterday
that moved the kernel from 2.6.16.9 to 2.6.16.13.
I've since heard "My network performance is awful", and worse
yet, some apps seem broken as in the report below.
Anyone have any ideas ?
Try reverting the e1000 truesize patch. Although the fix is 100%
correct, it might have a negative impact on user-space apps with
particuarly small rcvbuf settings. Prior to the fix, due to the
incorrect accounting we are essentially enlarging rcvbuf by as much
as 10 times.
At least one of the reports shows problems with non e1000 NICs, so it's
probably not just the e1000 change.
