If you are meaning in term of Packet per second, you are right. These are the packet per second measured during tests:

64 byte:        610119 Pps
512 byte:       516917 Pps
1492 byte:      464962 Pps

Yes, as you can see the maximum is 610119 Pps.
Where does this limit come from?

Correct. In these first tests I want to "tune" the system, so I am using the (let me say) worst scenario.
