From: inkling <hidden>

Kernel 2.4.32 r8169 driver was missing change MTU.
It is back-ported from the kernel 2.6.16 r8169 driver.
Performance went from 40 megabyte/second (MTU 1500) to 58 megabyte/second
(MTU 7200) when testing with custom http server and wget for client.
Target and destination were both tmpfs volumes.
Feedback requested: Did I do it right? Does it work for you?
