what about hardware offloading capabilities? did you chek the impact on performance?

ie CK804:

<<ethtool -k eth0>>
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
scatter-gather: on
tcp segmentation offload: on
udp fragmentation offload: off
generic segmentation offload: off

<<ethtool -i eth0>>
driver: forcedeth
version: 0.61

i think this will make a big difference!!
