Initial Comment:
How do I set up gigabit link between host and guest? Looks like I'm only connected at 100Mbps. I checked the priority, and colinux-net-daemon.exe is set to high by default. I wanted to increase the MTU but seems to be limited to 1500, maybe I can hack it in the registry? I'm not sure if this will provide any performance improvements but just trying things out.

Message:
If what you are trying to achieve is make host colinux network
communication faster. I think getting GE is not the direction. Since to the
colinux netdev driver FE or GE the same thing. We should look into how the
data being copied between host and colinux. For example, I am sure the cofb
drive use different way to copy data to host that suppose to be faster (no
test result to prove).
