In Linux 2.6 with TSO?

Other than that I would suggest to enable oprofile on 2.6 and post

You have to use sendfile() for TX checksum off load. Without that the 
data needs to be copied anyways and a copy+csum is about the same cost
as a simple copy.

You mean TSO? Are you sure the test programs submitted big enough 
buffers to the TCP stack?
