That's a bummer. I'm guessing you might get close to right on average with some trivial math, but if someone is sending you pkts with size of 1000 and your MTU is 1500, would there be any way to tell that the pkts were originally 1000 bytes instead of 1500?Good point.Well if you did GRO instead of LRO then none of this would matter :)
I get aggregate 18Gbps with LRO v/s 12Gbps without, so it's very much a useful feature for me. Thanks, Ben -- Ben Greear [off-list ref] Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com
