Here are some places to look/try:

ftp://robur.slu.se/pub/Linux/net-development/pktgen-testing/
(is this the same pktgen that is now in 2.5 kernels?)


fsx-linux from Dave Jones:
  http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/cruft/
or from Andrew Morton (used to be here at least):
  http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/ext3-tools.tar.gz
This is a filesystem test and has been known to find problems, both
locally and over NFS.
