Brett, can you try the two attached patches here with iperf3?
I think testing with 8 and 16 threads is enough, so where there is a
regression.

The two patches are about time when to wake:
Currently we wake after consuming half the internal ring buffer.
One of the attached patches wakes after 2 cachelines (128 of 1000
packets) and the other one just wakes once the ring buffer is empty.

This would really help :)
Whoops send you the wrong patch (the opt-in patch again), here
is the wake on empty patch.
