We are preparing to implement routing in our network (better late than
never).  We are running SCO Unix on most of our hosts and primarily use
SMC/Western Digital network interface cards.  Does anyone have any
specific information on what sort of system load increase I can expect
on hosts given a second interface card?  I realize that there are
variables here which may make this impossible to answer (like, how much
memory does the host have?), but I will appreciate any information
(statistics, rules of thumbs, whatever) that is forthcoming.
