I have also found that:
1. rx overruns is increasing.
2. rx_queue_drop_packet_count is increasing.
So you flood machine with packets, its not an idle one ?

I thought you were doing experiments with light trafic.

# ethtool -S eth0 | grep drop
     tx_dropped: 0
     rx_queue_drop_packet_count: 1260743751
     dropped_smbus: 0
     rx_queue_0_drops: 0
     rx_queue_1_drops: 0
     rx_queue_2_drops: 0
     rx_queue_3_drops: 0

ethtool -S eth0   (full output, not small parts)

3. By sending SYN-packets by hping, RST packet doesn't send, but I don't know may 
be it is just some feature in 2.6.32.

As a result I got doubles:
Are you playing with trafic shaping ?
