The number getting floated around on the mailing list recently is 16.5Mpps for phy-phy. However, I don't think we have any iperf data off-hand for your usecase. When we test throughput into the vm we usually generate the traffic externally and send NIC->OVS->VM->OVS->NIC. This is a little different to your setup. I do know, however, that ovs-dpdk typically has a much larger throughput than the kernel space datapath.
