Can you do some UDP testing with 512b, 1K, 2K, 4K, 8K, and 16K packets to
see if performance changes there as well?

Hmm.. I would think 512b and 1K will not show any
improvement.. since they would probably end up either
in an mbuf chain.. or a single 2k (or maybe 4k) cluster..
... quite a waste.. now if we had 512b and 1k clusters that
would be cool...

In fact I have always thought we should:

a) have no data portion in an mbuf.. just pointers i.e. always
   an EXT

b) Have a 256/512 and 1k cluster too..

This would allow copy by reference no matter what size si
being sent...

But of course .. thats just me :-)

Well, people tell me to "profile, not speculate".  So I'm doing it
now with quite some success.  Lets file your little rant here into
the same category.  ;-)
