I've mentioned in my first post that there are zero drops at driver level

of eth0 and eth1 to CPU0, so I guess NIC ring RX/TX size, link HW_FLOW
control
and affinity are not my problems.
Maybe try un-binding the cpus, or binding them to different procs?
Speaking of checksumming. This can be a problem indeed. ethtool -S shows
a lot
of rx_csum_offload errors. Scott, what could possibly be a problem ? The
NIC
is dual port 82546, driver is 5.1.13-k1.
Why would a bridge be checksumming anything?
I've failed to find a discussion about ksoftird priority. Can someone
please
provide a link.
I've increased my performance by setting softirqd priority to -18,
but since you seem to be dropping someplace other than the driver,
I'm not sure that will help.
Thanks a lot.
Felix.
