With the help of Mark Hahn I figuerd out, that the problem was the Bridge setting, not the NIC setting. The VT8363/8365 Bridge was blocking/slowing down the bus. After allowing this device to do fast back-to-back writes it works _much_ better, i.e. no more errors on the NIC. If I encounter no negative effects of this setting, then I consider this a working setup. Thank you very much for you help!
