- Which kernel are you using ?
- Can you try plain old scp -c blowfish $BIG_FILE in a text console (i.e.
outside of X) and report the transfer rate ?
- If it still sucks, can you try 2.6.13-rc6 ?
- Please send:
o complete dmesg after boot
o lspci -vx
o lsmod
o cat /proc/interrupts + vmstat 1 during transfer
o ethtool ethX
Do not hesitate to use bugzilla.kernel.org.
