Unless i'm mistaken, that would include the Netgear GA620 cards, of 
which i already have several (they support jumbo frames, although i 
don't know about IRIX.)  So now i just need a $200 cage and i can give 
it a shot.  Is there any performance hit taken from using the PCI cage 
as opposed to native cards?

Thanks,
