I don't think it's possible to NOT use DMA on a 5200.  If your link
is 100Mbps and you are putting out something close to that then
90% is not unreasonable.  There are still memory copies involved.

Where is it getting the large file from?  Maybe IDE is a bottleneck.

Hi. I'm using linuxppc_2_4_devel from Denx CVS on a Lite5200 board.
When doing "put" of a large file to a ftp server, ftp eats all the CPU
available (90%+). I suspect it's not using DMA for the ethernet. Is this
right?
Thanks in advance.

Iñigo
