This is not a regression. The APU2 has limited CPU power and can handle larger packets much better than typically internet-routable 1500 byte packets. The same traffic level, with 1500 byte packets generates 6 times more packets per second than that traffic level with 9000 bytes packets. There is ongoing work to improve the network stack performance on boxes like the APU2 (which have 4 cores). You will see improvements. If you want it better today, you need a faster box. Chris
