His newer

0002-r8169-workaround-against-ignored-TxPoll-writes-8168.patch
does the same thing as the older quoted version, and is also
included in the roll-up patch he pointed you to.

I agree re. performance, and don't want to clutter the thread
realtek issues.  I just wanted to clarify this particular
realtek-samba issue in case it's relevant.  For a long time folks
suspected similar culprits (bad cable, half duplex, etc.) when
it was the driver.  Perhaps you should try doing a ping flood 
between server&client during your test.  That healed the
problem by keeping the queue busy in the realtek case.
