Unfortunately, I am not in a very good position to do this. The 10G interfaces on our device don't actually have enough raw PCI bandwidth available to hit 10G transfer rates. I did use iperf3 and saw bursts over 2Gbit/sec (with average closer to 1.3Gbit/sec on a good run). There was no significant difference between running with and without the patch. I am told that this is about as good as can be expected. Make of that what you will :) Lincoln
