Yes, PF_RING FT, included in latest stable, requires a license.

No packet copy at all.

Yes

You should be able to do 10Gbit line-rate, however this also depends on your 
hw. Please note you can use multiple threads (with RSS or ZC software 
distribution) if 1 core is not enough.

It keeps some state, as 1 packet is often not enough.
