yeah, that could be problem with this testing ...
kern.netlivelocks=6 after few minutes of sending 14Mpps through myx :)

i'm generating 64byte udp packets with pktgen through openbsd box (plain
forwarding only)
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/pktgen.txt

on linux box i'm counting pps on interface from which i'm sending
packets to openbsd box and on interface on which i'm receiving packets
from openbsd box ..

on box with 12 x Xenon CPU E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10GHz, 2400.01 MHz, 06-3e-04
with or without this diff i'm getting 890Kpps of plain forwarding
