Brian,

The way to really test these things is to use:
(I cut this froma document I am preparing)

11.1 Network performance: netperf
---------------------------------
Source: http://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html

Run Script:
./netperf -t UDP_STREAM -p 12865 -n 2 -l 60 -H NODE -- -s 65535 -m 1472
./netperf -t TCP_STREAM -p 12865 -n 2 -l 60 -H NODE

NODE is the remote node name.

11.2: Network Performance: netpipe
----------------------------------
Source: http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/Netpipe/


Read the documentation and run the tests and you will have 
a very good measurement of your performance.

I have a box of these Lite-on cards. I may test this tomorrow.
I have one question: Are these patches specific to the
Lite-On chip set (do they break the driver for other chipsets?)
