Which motherboard and filesystem do you use ?

I don't think so.

Some r8169 PR are still open (mac address change, acpi suspend/resume
and "special" motherboard) but there is no clear pattern related to
stability under load.
Can you send before and after the ping takes 9000 ms:
- ifconfig output
- registers dump via ethtool
9000ms seems quite close to the watchdog timeout (6 s) + ping
interval. Complete dmesg and .config will be welcome.
