        Did you mean the statistics on switch ?

Yes
  Output queue 0/40, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops
  5 minute input rate 6031000 bits/sec, 877 packets/sec
  5 minute output rate 3104000 bits/sec, 1160 packets/sec
     1631516276 packets input, 4237296754 bytes
     Received 161839 broadcasts, 212836721 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles
     212836725 input errors, 0 CRC, 4 frame, 0 overrun, 84223 ignored
     0 watchdog, 0 multicast
     0 input packets with dribble condition detected
     194910163 packets output, 3947790078 bytes, 0 underruns
     0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets
     0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred
     0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier
     0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out



No, it doesn't affect the switch statistic because bug is in receive part of FreeBSD driver - it doesn't affect packets sent out to switch.
It doesnt seem to affect performance. When I did some benchmarks way back with netperf, the difference in vlan performance vs native fxp performance was barely significant.
