Re: [Xen-users] XCP Linux Para virtualization 10 GigE interfaces
First step is to run the script under "Disable CheckSum Offload" @

Second step is to tweak your TCP stack for 10 GigE. Something like:

This will help. But to get near native speeds you're going to have to
go SR-IOV. That's really the only way to get high speed networking in
a VM setup.
