-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If I leave the machine up long enough (even idling) re(4) max. throughput slowly drops to very small numbers (I have never let it get to 0 yet so I don't know if that will happen). Some types of activity seem to make the decay faster: * Long persistent connections (torrents and cvsup) * Long running CPU hogs (avi player) * Many little pin-prick connections (flipping through web pages quickly) The worst offender of all is gmail chat (instant death). I can't tell if anything else slows to a crawl but doesn't seem to.
