With your parameters, this is normal. The switch does not have any significant effect here. Have a look at http://fozzie.homelinux.org/documents/rtnet/ for an explanation (for all other readers: it's in German). Just note that the authors used an older RTnet version and that some of their figures look a bit "strange" (they admitted that they used a non-rt capturing system for some measurements). However, they observed the same typical latency shapes and explained it well.
