Back in February, in the context of Interrupt Coalescing/Polling, someone said that the host timers were too coarse, but that the Eepro 100 had a timer which would be suitable for periodic Rx handling under loads which produced excessive receive interrupts.

I've gone through the documentation and can't find the timer, and wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction.
