when testing network performance you might want to use the packet
generator included in the 2.6 linux kernel (in menuconfig go to
Networking -> Networking options -> Network testing -> Packet Generator).
with this tool you can bypass the ip stack, user space/kernel space
barrier, etc, and measure the speed of the hardware itself using UDP-like
packets.
using pktgen i have seen data rates close to gigabit. (the hardware i'm
working with is a memec minimodule with V4FX12. i'm using plb_temac with
s/g dma, plb running at 100MHz, and our custom core accessed via IPIF's
address range. sw is linux 2.6.19, xilinx tools are EDK 8.2i)
another hint: when transfering bulk amount of data TCP is probably an
overkill, especially on dedicated intranets and given the reliability
of the network devices available today. just use UDP if you can.
