I never realized that jumbo frames needed to be enabled on network adapters. I found that they were disabled on both my Windows 7 PC and on my Win2k8 server. So I just enabled them. I regularly transfer very large files between the two systems and there's definitely an improvement. Probably 10-20% faster. Damn.
You do need a jumbo frame capable network switch. So check that first.
