1417 help
1418 NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
1419 when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
1420 still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
1421
1422 If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
1423 deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
1424 then say Y here.
1425
1426 See <file:Documentation/networking/NAPI_HOWTO.txt> for more
1427 information.
1428
1429 If in doubt, say N.
