Alright we've found something and it seems to be a pretty solid lead.  What I'd 
like for you to do if you can find the time is repeat the tests you've been 
running but put up a window that watches the packet stats per queue.  Something 
like this:

watch -n 2 'ethtool -S <ethx> | grep packets'

Then watch the tx queue packet stats.  We're thinking that when the problem 
occurs that the VF is not able to communicate with the PF you will see packets 
from the PF to the VF going out on tx queue 1.  When it works you'll see 
packets going out on tx queue 0.

If you could confirm that for us it would help out a great deal.

Thanks for your help and your patience.

- Greg
