 That's what the subject of the email says...

 I've run some benchmarks, and they seemed to go pretty badly.  After  
 running a few, I realized that I still had two network interfaces up,  
 (em0, and the testing re0), I did an ifconfig em0 down, and was unable  
 to connect in or out from the remaining re0.  Perhaps this code isn't  
 all the way complete.
