On 2.4.2: Before: ttcp-t: buflen=8192, nbuf=2048, align=16384/0, port=5013 atm -> 0.90 ttcp-t: socket ttcp-t: 16777216 bytes in 3.829257 real seconds = 4278.636822 KB/sec (35.050593 Mb/sec) After either of your patches, the result was the same, sorry. I tried to apply the patch to 2.4.3 and still got the better result with it, altought compiling kernel still improved the performance.
