Reaaltek cards and the 're' device driver are a *BAD*CHOICE* for systems with heavy network traffic. They're merely 'medium lousy' on a lightly-loaded system, but you don't notice the problems under light loads. You have two choices: 1) "live with" the crappy performance 2) get a better quality network card.
