I switched from a mellanox card to an intel x520. I was able to get full 10gb using perf between opnsense and my unraid server, after switching to X520 I am getting less than 2 from unraid to opnsense but full 10gb between opnsense to unraid, telling me that I have something misconfigured. Any ideas? Anyone else with an X520 getting line speed?

Edit: I found the issue, sorry! I just didn't look hard enough at the forums.  I found this which helped ALOT.
