So Adrian, I ran tests again using FreeBSD 11-RC1.
I put iperf throughput in result files (so that we can classify them), =
as well as top -P ALL and pcm-memory.x.
iperf results : columns 3&4 are for srv1->srv2, columns 5&6 are for =
srv2->srv1 (both flows running at the same time).



Results, expected throughput (best first) :
11, 01, 05, 07, 06

Results, bad (best first) :
04, 02, 09, 03

Results, worst (best first) :
10, 08
