I'm trying to reproduce in my testlab (with ixgbe). I do see, a
performance reduction of about 10-19% when I forward out a VLAN
interface. This is larger than I expected, but still lower than what
you reported 30-40% slowdown.
[...]
Ok mellanox afrrived (MT27700 - mlnx5 driver)
And to compare melannox with vlans and without: 33% performance
degradation (less than with ixgbe where i reach ~40% with same settings)
Mellanox without TX traffix on vlan:

I wonder if the drivers page recycler is active/working or not, and if
the situation is different between VLAN vs no-vlan (given
page_frag_free is so high in you perf top). The Mellanox drivers
fortunately have a stats counter to tell us this explicitly (which the
ixgbe driver doesn't).
You can use my ethtool_stats.pl script watch these stats:
https://github.com/netoptimizer/network-testing/blob/master/bin/ethtool_stats.pl

This is related to the page_frag_free() call, but it is weird that it
shows up because it is suppose to be inlined (it is explicitly marked
inline in include/linux/mm.h).

attached file
The attached was very big. Please don't attach so big file on mailing
lists. Next time plase share them via e.g. pastebin. The output was a
capture from your terminal, which made the output more difficult to
read. Hint: You can/could use perf --stdio and place it in a file
instead.
The output (extracted below) didn't show who called 'do_raw_spin_lock',
BUT it showed another interesting thing. The kernel code
__dev_queue_xmit() in might create route dst-cache problem for itself(?),
as it will first call skb_dst_force() and then skb_dst_drop() when the
packet is transmitted on a VLAN.
