They come from TCP because it will pass down a max MTU sized packet (upto 64k) for the NIC to segment (Tcp Segmentation Offload) But the traffic control cannot work with such large packets. > Any better idea on a proper fix? Hmm, that's nasty. The only workaround I could think of would be to force TSO/LSO off when a non standard queueing discipline is active. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
