Sorry, I was not very clear with my statement.  I meant was that the old 
bug of very poor / terrible performance still existed when GRO was on. 
Turning if off leads to reasonable performance that I can live with :)

Sorry, ignorance is biting me here and I am not sure what you mean.  I 
thought iptables was necessary to make LVS-NAT work in the first place.

I do have other services in the mix than http, but I could try that.

Yeah, I can get gigabit transfer rates direct from a real server and 
via the LVS-NAT for a single file on a single connection.

The LVS director seems to be maxing out around 50,000 packets per second 
based on sar output.

Thanks for the help!
