hi, Wojciech
can you send the patch?
did you free skbuffs from the irq handler or somewhere else?

when i run netperf (snapshot) test using the 100Mbps connection, this
test eats all the available RAM. the /proc/meminfo shows that most of the used
memory at that point is been held by internal kernel structures (Slab).
