You need to increase your mbuf pool, note below in your messages where it
has
insufficient to configure for ix1, I don't know that this will change the
interrupt
difference but it should be addressed anyway.

I also noticed that you have the adapter in a PCIE 1.0 slot (only 2.5 Gb/s),
that
will limit you, you should move to a 2.0 slot if possible.

Regards,

Jack
