I have this interface in an Intel NUC,

re0@pci0:3:0:0:	class=3D0x020000 card=3D0x20678086 chip=3D0x816810ec =
rev=3D0x15 hdr=3D0x00
    vendor     =3D 'Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.'
    device     =3D 'RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet =
Controller'
    class      =3D network
    subclass   =3D ethernet


and I have had serious problems running an iSCSI initiator with some =
work load.  I tried both the
builtin =E2=80=9Cre=E2=80=9D driver in FreeBSD and the 1.94.01 version =
driver available from the Realtek website
with similar results.


More or less the same workload on a different machine with Intel =
=E2=80=9Cem=E2=80=9D cards and=20
the same FreeBSD version works.
