Jonathan Lemon's code is what got checked in -- its considerably better than my private hacks. I think the if_ti.c driver is the only drive to make use of it. You might want to peek at it if you're feeling like making the if_wx driver offload checksums. You can feel free to forward that ;) Drew BTW -- how is the if_wx.c driver? Has it gotten any better (you were talking about how poorly it performed & were going to see where the bottleneck was the last I heard).
