High-level question. How realistic is sending a 40-segment frame in the first 
place? This whole thing seems kind of academic to me unless I missed 
something.

I usually use 2K pktmbufs and I don't think this is an uncommon size. Most 
jumbo frame hardware only does 9.5KB max frame size or so.

So I am having a hard time imagining how I'd end up with more than 10 segments 
as a worst-case scenario.

Matthew.
