I don't have one of these.  Can you provide more details about it,
such as:
 - How many I/O queues does it have?
 - Are the interrupts correctly bound to the CPUs (for both sets of tests)?
   The driver isn't allowed to set the irq affinity correctly itself;
   it can only set a hint and userspace (eg irqbalance) has to set the
   affinity correctly
 - Does it support interrupt coalescing?  If so, have you managed to do any
   testing using that feature?
