Ok, I think I have here some numbers related to disk performance being
affected by tcp_rack that somehow is messing with something.

NOTES:
- test [1] was done after a boot without tcp_rack in loader.conf and
[2] tcp_rack was loaded manually with kldload (without rebooting)
- After unloading tcp_rack, same results as [2]
- Cannot unload tcptpts: device busy

[1] without tcp_rack loaded:
