Hi,

Running Netatalk-asun port on FreeBSD-SATBLE.
Hardware is a new Dell 2300 on a 100Base-T
network.
 
When another 100Base-T client connects I get the 
following error on the console:
	atalkd: afp_openfork: ad_open: Input/Output error.
 
With older 100Base-T clients (actually other Mac fileservers)
the speed is still quite good, but with iMac clients the 
speed goes right down to around 400K a second. Reading *from*
the server seems to be about half that again.

I've also noted the same slowdown on another FreeBSD-stable machine 
with a 3Com 3905b (?)card.
