FWIW, this problem is unlikely rooted in geom at all. I have added a 
second NIC into the machine, Reatek 8139 rl0 (yes -- I know it's crap), 
and performed the same setup: maximum speed. Conclusion for me is rather 
my NIC is broken or the driver. I suspect the driver to be.
The link state was going down and up over and over again. The same issue 
has been reported here [1], [2] a couple of years ago.

I will repost this to freebsd-net or rather to bugs.freebsd.org
