hi

Can Linux 2.4 use the hardware checksumming in the e1000 adapter? I mean .. my
server is using most of it's time to csum_partial_copy_generic (and that's
the checksum? or am I wrong?)

[root@vs1 /]# readprofile | sort -rn +2 | head -30
124855 default_idle 1950.8594
33335 handle_IRQ_event 231.4931
47663 csum_partial_copy_generic 205.4440
13144 e1000_intr 136.9167
6526 fget 101.9688
6474 system_call 101.1562
4620 sock_poll 96.2500
10125 skb_release_data 90.4018

thanks

roy
