The NIC is broadcom (Bnx2 driver), I have, however i had to go to the RHEL5.1 kernel as it does not want to compile on the new kernels. however it did not change much, i have also played with the different congestion settings, and even though Vegas seems to be the most performance capable, it still did not solve it, I had one test that i did not write down where it did perform well, I have saved the sysctl and will check what parameters have made the difference. regards Walid
