Subject: r8169 tx problem (1s pause with ping)
Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2007 20:41:54 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070613004154.GA4187@kvack.org> (raw)

Hello folks,

I'm seeing something odd with r8169 on FC7: doing a ping -s 1600 alternates 
between a 1s latency and sub 1ms.  Has anyone else seen anything like this?  
The system in question is an Asus M2A-VM with an onboard RTL8111 (I think).  
NAPI doesn't seem to make a difference.  The kernel in question is currently 
a vanilla 2.6.21.5.  Sub-mtu sized packets behave normally.
