Hello,

I've tried to alter some of the parameters in the driver to try and fix the
problem.

I'm getting two different error messages:

 eth0: Too much work during an interrupt, csr=...

and 

 eth0: Restarted Rx at nn / nn

I've upped the max work value so that I don't get the first message but I
still get the restarted message. I tried changing the tx and rx ring sizes
and tx queue length but I still get the restarted message.

Once it throws an error the TCP connection seems to be toast.

One other piece of information is that I'm on a large corporate network here
and there is a fair amount of broadcast packets floating around. I'd guess
the rate is about 20 packets a second average.

Does any of this ring a bell with anyone out there?

Thanks

Andrew Schneider
