More on this.

We have two interfaces:
04:04.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08)
03:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82543GC Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)

NetPipe (tcp) shows numbers like 80Mb/s for e100 and 500Mb/s for e1000. So
efficiency is much much higher for e100 driver+card than e1000.
I have to dig, perhaps e100 is doing zerocopy and e1000 is not ?

Any ideas ?
