Someone correct me if i am wrong - but does it appear as if all these
changes are only useful on PCI but not PCI-X?

They are useful on PCI-X as well as regular PCI.  On my 64/100 NIC I
get ~620kpps on 2.6.9, ~1Mpps with 2.6.9 plus tx rework plus TXDMAC=0.

Martin gets the ~1Mpps number with just the tx rework, and even more
with TXDMAC=0 added in as well.

Right, but so far when i scan the results all i see is PCI not PCI-X.
Which of your (or Martins) boards has PCI-X?

I've tested 32/33 PCI, 32/66 PCI, and 64/100 PCI-X.  I _think_ Martin
was running at 64/133 PCI-X.
