Hello,

I'm running 6.6 Stable amd64  on an 4 Core VM with ix(4) PCI-E SRIOV
attached Nics
Im seeing performance of about 450Mb/s throughput

it bridges /aggregates about 90 vlans into one physical 10G port  (and
isolates them (with all the vlans in the bridge and in the same
protection
im seeing alot of of packets dropped because of destination
unreachable  ( about 3K destinations unreachable per second)

my guess is that there are bursts of packets coming through and the
cpu cant process them in time... Im wondering is there a handy way of
increasing buffers to smooth out these micro bursts ? to see if this
will improve the situation

with the system running about 20 hours the following stats are

I found this using the following command to test
