I don't know how much better the performance will be,

Gig-E interfaces.

Larger on card buffers means less interrupts.  Less interrupts means
more work done handling packets.  Obviously you'll have bus
limitations, you've acknowledged that, but gig cards will increase the
PPS rates on slower systems due to their buffers - that may or may not
actually improve performance ;)
