I have a patch (in production since 8.x) that makes em(4) support hw.em.max_interrupt_rate just like igb(4) supports hw.igb.max_interrupt_rate: http://www.grosbein.net/freebsd/patches/em_sysctl-11.0.diff.gz It also brings in sysctls dev.em.X.max_interrupt_rate and hw.em.max_interrupt_rate sets defaults for them. I use hw.em.max_interrupt_rate=32000 for 1GB link passing average sized packets (about 600 bytes per packet at average) but driver's default 8000 should be nearly fine for full size packets (1500 or above) and this 8000 limit cannot be reason for such low throughput. > Bugs in iflib are easy to avoid by running FreeBSD-11.
