[Spread-users] spread performance looks not very good for me

Actually, I thought about that.  But I did not find anything wrong about the interface.

There is the result of ifconfig.

Looks good?

Did you imply the spread.conf is good?

Thanks.

Anytime I see 8Mbps in a benchmark, I instantly suspect network 
misconfiguration forcing you down to 10fdx or 10hdx.  Do you have any 
interface errors?
