   The more I think about it, since GB Ethernet is much faster than this legacy   
   device is anyway, what I can do is instead of attempting to send/recv the   
   whole requested count in one shot, which can be up to 64KW, which in turn will   
   be going in/out in    
   multiple packets anyway, I can just break it up into multiple send/recvs of   
   say 1500 bytes or so and in my loop check for the condition I'm concerned   
   about. When it occurs stop my loop. I would then have a reasonable residual   
   count and status to report    
   to the software layer.    
      
   Performance is not as critical as emulation accuracy.
