I was thinking of the NIC, thats why I tried it on localhost (bypassing the
NIC(?)).
I'm using a re-nick:
re0: <RealTek 8168/8111B PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x7e00-0x7eff mem
0xfd3ff000-0xfd3fffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci3

I have not changed anything, except upgrading the world + kernel. No
hardware was added, no bios-settings where changed. The only thing I can
think of is that I might have changed a sysctl a long time ago that boosted
my performance, and that change have been lost after the reboot.
