try increasing the B parameter to 16k
try writing the output to a file (-w filename) and watch for dropped packets
there, then read it to see the numbers with
tcpdump -nn -r filename |cut -c 1-8 |uniq -c
(no need for filters as the contents of the file were already filtered)
it's interesting that with the higher packet rate, your actually get fewer
packets successfully received most of the time.
