During heavy Tx load CPDMA may run out of descriptors and tx queue is stopped. When it descriptors are available it is reported to the stack via netif_start_queue which doesn't schedule tx queue immediately, so there can be dead time during continuous transfer, this can be fixed by using netif_wake_queue api which will schedule tx queue immediately.
