I'll try that and let you know the results.
I want to use the profiler, because the network performance of dbau1200
is very poor (with 2.6.14-rc2 and smc91x driver I get around 12Mbit/s!).
I check the traffic of netperf with ethereal and I see quite a lot
of duplicated packets (see the attached file with a few packets).
I think think this is also the reason that NFS is so slow.
