I encountered a similar issue with httperf nearly 1 month ago. 
I may be wrong for your case but I think it's due to a regression which 
appeared in kernel 2.6.39.3 and later.

Kernel bugzilla is down right now but the bug is referenced here :
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42012

From the netdev archive, a patch has been proposed to fix the regression :
