Yes, VXLAN is the same. I just read the OpenContrail link you mentioned. It seems impossible to me to achieve 9.18Gbps for MTU 1500 without hardware offloading... We did some work on VXLAN based on OVS, and the max throughput we could achieve was about 6.7Gbps, before optimization it was 2.6Gbps. Would be interested to study their code.
