I suspect my firewall *is* the cause of the packet loss, unfortunately. We're sending multiple streams in from multiple sources and destinations, but the aggregate bandwidth coming into the firewall is consistent no matter how many sources and destinations we have. It maxes at about 2Gb/s. That's why I was trying to tweak the firewall, to try and get that number up.
Sorry, to be clear, the *average* bandwidth was like 2Gb/s, I'm really trying to dodge the sawtooth traffic pattern in some way, I see it go up to 3Gb/s every once in a while. I was hoping to achieve getting closer to 3Gb/s on average by adding buffers to my firewall, but maybe that isn't the answer...
I tried Jason's suggestions earlier but it didn't seem to help much unfortunately.
