Anyone got any suggestions for things I could change/tune/fiddle with to bring
up the rumprun nginx transactions per second?

jumping back...

Not sure I understand - I am running rumprun on Xen. Is there a way to change
the configuration/drivers to use the baremtal NIC drivers to make it faster?

I'm executing the benchmarking siege tool from the Xen host Dom0, not in the
same domain.
I have tried to configure 4 similar environments, each running nginx. It’s not
super scientific but they are similar configurations.
