So now the load looks ok, still the old Redhat is holding its head above but now it is only with 10%. This may be due to further bugs in the tg3 driver that hopefully a new kernel will fix - if not then I must fill a bug report and send it to the driver developers, it can not be intently that there driver messes up system performance that much because of its default queue length.

You could ofcourse try the 2.4.* kernel available in sarge, if it solves the problem, you know it was something with the kernel; otherwise, you know it's probably somewhere else
