Thanks Jack,

So I am running a couple of FreeBSD machines with those and they are in
LACP pair plus vlans on top of them.
When I run iperf between the two I get about about 1.7Gbit/s with 1 thread
and I max out around 4.5-5Gbp/s with 6-8 multiple parallel threads (tried
both UDP and TCP).

What kind of tuning would you recommend that I try?

Thanks,
Rumen Telbizov
