Re: kern/152828: [em] poor performance on 8.1, 8.2-PRE
Hi, I'm not seeing a complete stall, just very slow performance. I have two hosts on a shared gigabit Ethernet. One is OpenSolaris, the other FreeBSD. My SCP from the Opensolaris box to the FreeBSD one goes at: 653 MB00:29 The FreeBSD machine is an Intel SS4200-E. I have a second environment, identical except they're on a 100Mb switch rather than gigabit. Very similar throughput. Any suggestions appreciated.

Jack, I think the SCP scenario would be easiest for anyone else to reproduce. If you need a different type of scenario, let me know. I can't put this box into heavy use until I figure this out, so you might as well use me as a guinea pig.
