Well if you did GRO instead of LRO then none of this would matter :)

I get aggregate 18Gbps with LRO v/s 12Gbps without, so it's very much a useful feature
for me.

Sorry we are each talking about different things.  The performance
difference you observed is software GRO vs. hardware LRO.  What I
was talking about above is switching the Intel hardware to do GRO
instead of LRO.

Cheers,
