OK... I've got an HP server with 2x Quad Core 2.5GHz Xeons, 32GB of RAM, and a Broadcom GigE Interface which has Proxmox 1.9 installed on it. (And yes, I'm connected to a GigE Network.) I have three different CentOS 5.8 and 6.2 based VMs running. The ethernet performance between the VMs and the outside world is AWFUL. I am seeing sub-megabit speeds.
Are there some ways to get this speed up closer to the 700-900 Mbps range? Any specifics or document links will be greatly appreciated.
Also, I need to bring up another system on identical hardware but will be running a linux VM along with three or four different Windows 2K and Windows XP VMs which are going to need to communicate between each other at these near Gigabit speeds. Am I better going with Proxmox 1.9, 2.0, or something completely different?
Thanks in advance for any advice, pointers, recommendations, and the benifit of your experience and skills.
