gige benchmark performance

[Mark Hartner]

We are working on putting together a 32 node cluster at the University of
Utah. I have benchmarked several Gigabit cards over cat5,
Netgear GA620T
Netgear GA622T
Intel Pro/1000T Server

I have put the performance results on my webpage,
www.cs.utah.edu/~hartner/gigabit.html

The Netgear GA622T performed rather poorly and I am wondering if it has
anything to do with our setup. Is there anyone else who could share thier
experiences with the GA622T or other cards based on the NS 83820
chipset? I have seen unfavorable postings in the past regarding NS 83820
cards, but our results are even worse than expected.

thanks,
Mark
