	Infelizmente você tem razão. A gente escuta tanta coisa que acaba
tomando por verdade (principalmente em apresentação de fornecedores).

	Fui pesquisar sobre essa informação, e acabei encontrando esse site:

http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Net:TOE

"Vendors have made modifications to Linux to support TOE, and these
changes have been submitted changes for kernel inclusion but were
rejected. This page describes the reasons why Linux engineers currently
feel that full network stack offload (TCP Offload Engine, TOE) has
little merit."

"Experience has shown that TOE implementations require additional work
(programming the hardware, hardware-specific socket manipulation) to set
up and tear down connections. For connection intensive protocols such as
HTTP, TOE often underperforms."


Estou decepcionado :-(
