[linux-audio-user] Verrrrry slow network using 2.6.16-rt

Hallo,

(this is a repost without the attached and rejected configs, sorry for
dupes)

I'm currently testing Ingo Molnar's RT patches and I see strange
things happen to my network, when running a patched kernel. I use the
patch-2.6.16-rt12 currently (just saw, that patch-2.6.16-rt13 is out
as well, but I cannot rebuilt the next days).

The symptoms are very slow connections through a pppoe network
connection. Logged in with ssh remotely sometimes stalls for dozens of
seconds, then it comes back for some seconds, then it stalls again and
no keyboard input is possible.

Other network stuff also is very slow, for example downloading the
normally *very* fast Ubuntu-bittorrents takes ages and I don't get the
good download rates I'm used to get from these fast torrents.

Booting a vanilla 2.6.16 kernel gives the good network connection I'm
used to. I don't see anything suspicious in log files.

Playing network sessions with remote musicians is impossible with the
rt-patches currently for me, so I'd like to fix this somehow.

Did someone else see similar stuff happen with Ingo's patches or some
of them?

Ciao
