Well, somehow it's fixed:
Since putting in the new Intel card, the transfer from the box dropped so
badly, I couldn't even copy a snoop from it.
So I removed the dohwchksum line from /etc/system and rebooted. Then just to
clean up a bit I disabled the onboard NICs in the bios.
Now I'm still seei

Ok, I have recieved a new set of NICs and a new switch and the problem still
remains.
Just for something to do I ran some tests:
Copying a 200Mb file over scp from the main problem workstation to a totally
unrelated gentoo linux box. Absolutely no problems.
So I thought it was down to the zfs fi

Hi Matt
Well this time you have filtered out any SSH traffic on port 22 successfully.
But I'm still only seeing half of the conversation!
I see packets sent from client to server.
That is from source: 10.194.217.12 to destination: 10.194.217.3
So a different client IP this time

Hi Matt
In your previous capture, (which you have now confirmed was done
on the Windows client), all those 'Bad TCP checksum' packets sent by the
client,
are explained, because you must be doing hardware TCP checksum offloading
on the client network adaptor. WireShark will capture the packets be

Hi Matt
Can you just confirm if that Ethernet capture file, that you made available,
was done on the client, or on the server. I'm beginning to suspect you
did it on the client.
You can get a capture file on the server (OpenSolaris) using the 'snoop'
command, as per one of my previous emails. You

I replied to Matt directly, but didn't hear back. It may be a driver issue
with checksum offloading. Certainly the symptoms are consistent.

Hi Matt.
Ok, got the capture and successfully 'unzipped' it.
(Sorry, I guess I'm using old software to do this!)
I see 12840 packets. The capture is a TCP conversation
between two hosts using the SMB aka CIFS protocol.
10.194.217.10 is the client - Presumably Windows?
10.194.217.3 is the server

Hi Matt
Unfortunately, I'm having problems un-compressing that zip file.
I tried with 7-zip and WinZip reports this:
skipping _1_20081027010354.cap: this file was compressed using an unknown
compression method.
Please visit www.winzip.com/wz54.htm for more information.

Damn forgot to add that, I'm running SXCE snv_97.

Ok on the answers to all my questions.
There's nothing that really stands out as being obviously wrong.
Just out of interest, what build of OpenSolaris are you using?
One thing you could try on the Ethernet capture file, is to set
the WireShark 'Time' column like this:

What chipset is your PCI network card?
(obviously, it not Intel, but what is it?)
Do you know which driver the card is using?
You say '..The system was fine for a couple of weeks..'.
At that point did you change any software - do any updates or upgrades?
For instance, did you upgrade to a

Hi all,
I've got a lot of video files on a zfs/cifs fileserver running SXCE. A
little while ago the dual onboard NICs died and I had to replace them with a
PCI 10/100 NIC. The system was fine for a couple of weeks but now the
performance when viewing a video file from the cifs share is appauling.
