For my mid-March non-debug build of main [so: 14] I get, for example, (.149 is the Rock64 V2.0; .120 is a ThreadRipper 1950X, both going at the same time here): --- 192.168.1.149 ping statistics --- 72 packets transmitted, 72 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev =3D 0.136/0.230/1.903/0.279 ms --- 192.168.1.120 ping statistics --- 81 packets transmitted, 81 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev =3D 0.211/0.241/0.286/0.013 ms So, no problem observed. The root file system is on a USB3 SSD. A removable eMMC is involved in the booting but no microsd card is present.
