performance problem

Hello, I have a mail server (sendmail) with SUNOS 5.5.1. Just recently it began to respond very slowly. I used vmstat to check the performance data. Only interupt, system call and CPU context swiching are relatively high. Other statistics are normal, especially CPU utilization are very...

Network performance problem between AIX and SUN ethernet gigabit

I am posting this as an FYI. I burned a lot of time on digging for this solution. The problem was performance between newer AIX p series boxes and a sun 4500 with a fiber nic. I tried many misc. solutions but this turned out to fix the issue. My bandwidth benchmark went from around 20MB/sec to...

Wireless network card performance

I am running FC4: Linux maincomp 2.6.13-1.1532_FC4smp I recently changed the OS from windows XP, and have a feeling that for some reason my wireless network card is slower on Fedora Core 4. The Belkin PCI 802.11b card was automatically detected and configured by FC4 when I installed the OS,...

Performance problem

Hi All, There is a virtual user "ecoouk" which logs on to the server and runs some scripts. I want to know how much server performance can I gain if I put off all the scripts run by this user. Please tell me how to analyse how much resources a specific user is using. Regards, Abhishek

Solaris 11.1 Slow Network Performance

I have identical M5000 machines that are needing to transfer very large amounts of data between them. These are fully loaded machines, and I've already checked IO, memory usage, etc... I get poor network performance even when the machines are idle or copying via loopback. The 10 GB NICs are...

EX(4)							 BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual						     EX(4)

NAME

     ex -- Ethernet device driver for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 and Pro/10+

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

	   device ex

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   if_ex_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The ex driver provides support for Ethernet adapters based on the Intel i82595 chip.

     On the ISA bus, the card will be searched for in the I/O address range 0x200 - 0x3a0.  The IRQ will be read from the EEPROM on the card.  For
     correct operation Plug-N-Play support should be disabled.

     On the PC Card bus, the card will be automatically recognized and configured.

HARDWARE

     The ex driver supports the following Ethernet adapters:

     o	 Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 ISA
     o	 Intel EtherExpress Pro/10+ ISA
     o	 Olicom OC2220 Ethernet PC Card
     o	 Olicom OC2232 Ethernet/Modem PC Card
     o	 Silicom Ethernet LAN PC Card
     o	 Silicom EtherSerial LAN PC Card

DIAGNOSTICS

     ex%d: Intel EtherExpress Pro/10, address %6D, connector %s  The device probe found an installed card, and was able to correctly install the
     device driver.

     ex%d: WARNING: board's EEPROM is configured for IRQ %d, using %d  The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
     interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.

     ex%d: invalid IRQ.  The device probe detected an invalid IRQ setting.

SEE ALSO

     arp(4), netintro(4), ng_ether(4), ifconfig(8)

HISTORY

     The ex device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 2.2.

AUTHORS

     The ex device driver was written by Javier Martin Rueda.  The PC Card attachment was written by Mitsuru ISAWAKI and Warner Losh.  This manual
     page was written by David E. O'Brien.

BUGS

     Currently the driver does not support multicast.

     The Silicom EtherSerial card's serial port does not currently work.  The Olicom OC2232 PC Card should work with the ex driver, but is cur-
     rently completely broken.
