+       help
+         NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
+         when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
+         still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
+
+         If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
+         deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
+         then say Y here.
+
+         See <file:Documentation/networking/NAPI_HOWTO.txt> for more
+         information.
 
          If in doubt, say N.
