Interesting data point.  My test case is like this:

server
        bind
        listen
        while (newsock = accept...)
                transfer()

client
        connect
        transfer

If the server side is the source of the data, i.e, it's transfer is a 
write loop, then I get the bad behaviour.  If I switch them so the data
flows in the other direction, then it works, I go from about 14K pkt/sec
to 43K pkt/sec.

Can anyone else reproduce this?  I can extract the test case from lmbench
so it is standalone but I suspect that any test case will do it.  I'll
try with the one that John sent.  Yup, s/read/write/ and s/write/read/
in his two files at the appropriate places and I get exactly the same
behaviour.

So is this a bug or intentional?
