[lwip-users] RE: Performance question

[Paul Tobias]

Using LWIP 0.8 (the current Xilinx distribution) raw API on a 
300 MHz PPC in Xilinx's ML403 development board, but otherwise a very
similar setup to Bill Auerbach's, we can receive about 13 Mbytes/sec 
from an old WinXP machine (net payload).  This is using programmed 
I/O to read the TEMAC FIFOs which is very very slow, so we are moving 
to using custom DMA.  Lwip processing for a packet takes about 
14 microsecs with the TCP checksumming turned off.  (I had previously 
reported receiving 300-400 Mbps using older drivers, but I now think 
that figure was erroneous.)
