Subject: Gianfar is slower than fcc_enet on MPC8541 ???

Hello,
I work on a cutom MPC8541 board with Linux 2.6.9.
The kernel activates the L1 cache (instructions and data)
and the L2 cache (entirely used as cache and not as sram).
I configure
1 FCC (FCC1),
2 TSECs with or without NAPI (no effect) but without stashing in L2 sram.
All PHYs are automatically configured in 100MB full duplex.
eth0: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.1, 00:10:cd:48:48:e0
eth0: Running with NAPI disabled
eth0: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size
eth1: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.1, 00:10:cd:48:48:e1
eth1: Running with NAPI disabled
eth1: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size
eth2: FCC ENET Version custom, 00:10:cd:48:48:e2
Then I launch 3 simple TCP servers, one on each ports.
>From remote machines I runs 3 TCP clients.
The client sends messages of 1000 bytes,
The server receives and echoes the message
The client receives the echoed message, check the content
and sends a new message again.
The result is that the 2 TSECs are 2 times slower than the FCC.
If I run a "top" application on the board, I use less than 10% of the CPU
Each port consumes about 1/3 of the CPU.
Any idea on how to configure the gianfar driver ?
Thanks
Laurent
