189 | * All offload engine are not used. | |
190 | * PCC/MSI are not used. | |
191 | * Redudent memory copy are used. (Will be removed in the future) | |

200 | Speed CPU Usage | |
201 | TCP tx: 7xMB 40% | |
202 | TCP rx: 3xMB 30% | |
203 | ||
204 | Note: These speed could be limited by peer, since CPU | |
205 | load is not much, and queue is not full. | |
