Sigh.... Sounds like I need to take another benchmarking
side-trip. I happen to have a reasonably powerful box with a quite
recent 3.x-STABLE and an Intel EtherExpress Pro 100+ NIC, and a
3Com3c905 NIC that I can borrow out of another machine. I'd also
like to play with upgrading to 4.0 on another disk on this machine,
so maybe I can do this as well.
If someone can point me at some instructions on how I can install
4.0 on a second disk on the same machine (so that I can keep my
3.x-STABLE, thankyouverymuch ;-), I'll be glad to try some
benchmarking with ftp'ing and scp'ing large files around on our
internal backbone.
