Absolutely. :-)

I'll do that together with the TSO code.
OK, I've built and done some touch testing of this. I like it, the
driver has
some counters of the number of TSO bursts it does, and I think I see more
per netperf test with your patch than mine.
Hard to do real performance testing with all that WITNESS stuff in, but
I will be making a 6.1 version of your patch to test with since I have my
driver running on that anyway.
You can disable WITNESS and INVARIANTS pretty easily in -current and
get the full performance with it.
If you do the ifconfig changes there will need to be a small amount of
code added to em_ioctl() but it should be trivial.
You want me to reissue a driver patch with changes for your code?
Yes, please do so. I've got a dual-em card which I can test with myself.
