Anyone have any suggestions for solving this problem?

Try 2.6.23-rc1 when it is published or apply against 2.6.22 one of:
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/people/francois/misc/20070628-2.6.22-rc6-r8169-test.patch

Unfortunately, the 20070628 patch did not make any difference.


http://www.fr.zoreil.com/linux/kernel/2.6.x/2.6.22-rc6/r8169-20070628/


I tried various patches from that directory (aren't most or all of them
included in the 20070628 patch?), but none of them helped either.


This problem could be very difficult to track down.  Like I said, it
definately effects emacs and firefox being "drawn" on a remote computer.
Ping times, however, are not that bad:

Also, wget gets good throughput when retrieving files.

It just seems to be X traffic which is extremely slow.  Using the old
Linksys 10/100 PCI NIC, emacs comes up virtually instantaneously.  Using the
integrated Realtek 8111B, emacs takes 10 seconds to draw.

Thank you very much for trying to help.

Any chance that the Realtek 8111B is sharing interrupts with another
device ("cat /proc/interrupts")?  Perhaps it is, and the Linksys isn't,
which could explain the difference in behavior.  Just something simple
to check and either rule in or out.


Yes it was, however "fixing" that did not solve the problem.

Thanks for the thought.

John

P.S. I did send the pcap files to Francois Romieu, but I did not CC the list
because they were large.
