   I/OAT driver copy accelerator still help?
It will depend upon the size of the copies being done. For bigger packets
the accelerator can help free up CPU cycles for other things.

However, if only 2% of the data which is being copied gets looked at, why
does it need to be copied? Can the original buffers not be used in that
case?
