I can get 20k pkt/s through a Pi 3.

There is an interesting quirk in this area.  Suppose you have a traffic 
generator with a knob on it, and you slowly crank up the knob until you are 
using 99.9% of a CPU.  Is that full load?  Nope.  That is going through the 
scheduler for each packet.  If you crank up the knob a bit more, it will start 
grabbing 2 packets for a trip through the scheduler.  ...
