SubjectRe: [net] 4890b686f4: netperf.Throughput_Mbps -69.4% regression
Hi all,

now we noticed this commit has already merged into mainline, and in our tests
there is still similar regression. [1]

not sure if there is a plan to merge some of the solutions that have been
discussed in this thread? we'll very glad to test patches if there is a request

Thanks a lot!
