Going to rerun with these patches and with and without MMAP. Will
also retry both with jumbo frames if possible.
       

If MMAP then some "alternative" too. But first no MMAP.
     

Another things IMHO worth to try: a sky2 module parameter
"disable_msi=1", and CONFIG_DMAR off.

Ok - that'd be with or without MMAP enabled? (note that so-far, without 
MMAP I'm not seeing any errors - throughput is running about half what I 
was seeing with MMAP enabled (before crashing that is). CPU is also way 
busier (also to be expected). One other observation - I had been seeing 
lots of DNS errors - IPV6 related format errors I really didn't think 
much of it as they were mostly .ru and seemed spam-related, but now I 
don't see any. Haven't updated bind; doubt the world has changed - so 
perhaps this is related to the network issue.
