  Ok,  additional  information:  it  seems,  that  `top'  is liar when
 POLLING is enabled for em0 and vr1 NICs. I'm turned POLLING off, and
 speeds are the same, but `idle' is no more 50%, it is `0%' when
 gateway is overloaded.

 But i still feezes under load with ULE. It looks like ULE is broken.
