Public bug reported: Kernel 3.11.0-15-generic appears to regress iwlwifi performance significantly.
I get about 400-500KiB/s sustained transfer rate with 3.11.0-15-generic, while speed is over 7MiB/s with either 3.11.0-12-generic or mainline kernel v3.11.10.3-saucy (same access point). This bug is likely dupe of bug 1270208, but I was asked to file it separately due to hardware differences.
