turns out this is a bug in pci-utils-2.1.11. it was not correctly
fetching the config information from the card, and was displaying
zeroed data instead. i've included a patch at the end of this email
and have also forwarded it to martin mares.

nope, can't move things around. this is a NexGate NSA 2040G, and everything
is built into the motherboard.

i'm seeing about 100Kpps, with all settings at their defaults on the 2.4.20
kernel.
basically, i have a couple of desktop PCs generating 480 streams
of UDP data at 50 packets per second. Packet size on the wire, including
96 bits of IFG, is 128 bytes. these packets are forwarded through a user
process on the NexGen box to an echoer process which is also running on the
traffic generator boxes. the echoer sends them back to the NexGen user process,
which forwards them back to the generator process. timestamps are logged
for each packet at send, loop and recv points.
anything over 480 streams, and i start to get large latencies and packet drops,
as measured by the timestamps in the sender and echoer process.
does 100Kpps sound reasonable for an untweaked 2.4.20 kernel?
thanks
