Bill, FYI, there was a known issue with e1000 (fixed in 7.0.38-k2) and socket charge due to truesize that kept one end or the other from opening its window. The result is not so great performance, and you must upgrade the driver at both ends to fix it. it was fixed in commit 9e2feace1acd38d7a3b1275f7f9f8a397d09040e That commit itself needed a couple of follow on bug fixes, but the point is that you could download 7.3.20 from sourceforge (which would compile on your kernel) and compare the performance with it if you were interested in a further experiment.
