Depending on what binary is reading what data stream, I think the bottleneck here is in the networked I/O file-system and not the hardware drivers. Just guessing out of curiosity. On Sun, Jan 22, 2012 at 3:09 PM, Akshat Kumar wrote: > I have a gigabit Realtek 8169 > ethernet port. > > Plan 9 show

I have a gigabit Realtek 8169 ethernet port. Plan 9 shows: "#l0: rtl8169: 100Mbps ..." Does this really mean that we are operating on 100Mbps? If so, what are the issues with going up to 1000Mbps? My switch shows that the connectivity is at gigabit... Thanks, ak
