The patch looks good and I think it can be pushed higher (-mm ?) for some wider

unfortunately, but it would be similar to yours anyway.
I'd like to know how this works for people with less memory and slower CPU, but any
kind of test run will be appreciated.
Hi Daniele,
I tested the driver under different setting of CPU clock. Under a lower clock,
I get less interrupts (what I was hoping for) and slightly less performance.
Under higher clock, I get better performance and almost 1 interrupt per packet.
I have a patch that solves the high interrupt rate problem by keeping
the driver in polled mode longer. It's written for the latest NAPI
version that DaveM posted recently. I'll try to get some time to write
it up and post it for comment.
