I'm actually reporting the values found in the first systat page. I
have a suspicion these counters act weird on cloning interfaces (I saw
the IPKTS being twice as much as OPKTS on a router without much
local-originating/consuming traffic, with fifty carps and vlans on one
side and bgp on the other), but in all of these tests the values were
more or less the same - around 200k each.
The bandwidth was distributed 113MB/s inbound and 70MB/s outbound
(depending on the way of course), and I watched it in systat ifs.

Thank you! I've only played with DEBUG once, but after failing to
explain some of the behaviour I consider myself not educated enough to
play with kernel options...
Unfortunately I probably won't be able to repeat the tests for some
time now, as the machine is already in production.
