Ugh, so many letters simultaneously… I'll answer them one by one if you don't mind :). Both the first and the second set of tests were performed on 2 KVM VMs, but from now I'll test everything using real HW only to exclude potential influence of virtualisation. Also, as I've already pointed out, on the real HW the difference is even bigger (~10 times). Now, I'm going to answer other emails of yours, including the actual results from the real HW and tcpdump output as requested. Thanks! Regards, Oleksandr
