i see this option is always off on network card settings in device manager. are there issues if its turned on and other devices on the network dont support jumbo frames?
 
Done some tests on 2 computers on 1 gigabit lan. Without jumbo large video file transfer sustained 113 megabytes per second. With jumbo on it was sustained 116 megabytes per second.
So yes does give more efficiency.
Also if only one computer has jumbo on and the other doesn't they can both communicate with each other fine.

I wonder if 10G Lan speed can be maxed out without jumbo frames?
