Summary: Poor performance of b44 driver
Description: I'm getting a transfer rate of 3 MB/s between two machines on the
same 100 Mbit lan. Using Broadcom's bcm4400 driver (which I believe is GPL),
I get 10 MB/s.
Kernel Version: 2.6.13 (vanilla) on a P4
I noticed when this problem was occurring, I frequently see the network
interface going down and then up again in the logs. Other than swapping out
the modules, I haven't done any other testing - so let me know if you need
anything else.

Too old, try 2.6.14.
