[coLinux-users] faster network connection

[Christopher G. <ch...@gm...>]

   Hi,
i'm using colinux for about two months. For now I've set up colinux 
0.7.8 (20100915) with a mandriva (spring 2010 32-bit) system with lvm 
and xfs for disk management and samba/ftp for making files available in 
windows. At first I used a tap-device as network interface. Now I'm 
using the ndis-bridge with a MS loopback interface (static IP).
However, file transfer speed seems to be limited to 100 mbps (~11-13 
MB/s). Native disk transfer is (was) at least about 44 MB/s (tested with 
TeraCopy). My CPU is an Intel Q8200 (Quad, @2,3Ghz) and shouldn't be the 
bootleneck (although cpu-usage is about 80% on CPU0 - Samba and 
ndis-bridge?). I've tested this under Windows XP Home SP3 and Vista 
Ultimate SP2, both running colinux as user (cmd-line) and as service. 
Transfer speed stays the same. Is there a way to boost up network 
performance to 1000 mbps? (Or is there another (fast) solution for 
making files available in windows?)
