Do you use eepro100 ethernet card? Some of them are known to be troublesome (I have 15 of "Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 05)", but use them for desktop computers). Most of the time they work fine but if you really want to put large load on the box, I would replace the card.
Using a 2.2.19 kernel should also give you an updated driver; I tend to agree about the quality of the eepro100 cards though.
