I've got a 2.2.7-RELEASE box with a generic NE2000 card.

For some reason, sending is really slow; approx 120-130k/sec on an FTP file,
perhaps even slower on POP. Sending is fast, however.


Diagnostic notes:

'top' shows CPU hanging around 90% idle the entire time the problem is
happening.

telnet from the same system that's trying to retrieve a file via FTP works
just fine - the machine is perfectly responsive while this is happening.

problem occurs with ftp connection originating from Win'98 and Redhat 5.1

FTP transmissions happen in small bursts at very regular intervals - about
3/4 sec apart



Any clues as to what could be causing this?
