Hi all,
Am wondering if anyone has done drivers the these sorts of network
interfaces that are offered by VMWare & Virtual box. I know that on
some Linux VMs I run, performance went from 20MB/s to 30MB/s to an NFS
server which I swicthed to the virtio network interfaces.

Hi all,
Am currently using an onboard GB nic, on my main fileserver (8.2
64bit, AMD, 8GB mem) which is seen as nfe0 (Nvidia, basically). Is
there a better one available? I have a one lane PCIe slot and any
number of PCI slots available.
