With what kind of program are you testing this?
I'm using apachebench at the moment to test an opteron 248 (and 242) against 
an nocona 3GHz and 3.6GHz. If I use a 1kb file i dont get anywhere near 400 
(or 900) mbit/s. (I hit that with 10k files, using 100k files i even get more 
than 13 gbit/s)

What concurrency levels are you using, and is the file compressable (ie; just 
a bunch of zero's or some file which gets bigger if you gzip it)

I haven't noticed any performance hits yet, haven't tested for it either, but 
the production servers are doing handeling the same load with a 2.6 kernel)
