Hi Will,

can you maybe try with a full-blown router (make-ip-conf.pl) to see what
it says ? (you seem to split on subnets so this should work also I
think)

How big are the packets you are generating ? and what do you use to
generate packets ? (sorry if it was already mentioned in the thread)
Have you tried to generate less packets and see when the output matches
the input ?

Maybe you can add a 'ThreadMonitor' element in your configuration to
have a look at the scheduling ?

Which kernel do you use ?

Have you tried something like:
PollDevice(eth1, true) -> Counter -> Queue -> ToDevice(eth2);
idle->ToDevide(eth1);
PollDevice(eth2)->Discard;

and then try with eth1 and eth2 switched (maybe there is a problem with
a card or so)

(the PollDevices and ToDevices have also handlers 'packets' in them
which count the packets, so you can have a look at these also instead of
counters)

Which type of e1000 cards are you using ?

regards,
Brecht
