And I even wonder, these days, if you probably get %90 or more of the

And since LRO can be done entirely in software (although stateless
HW assistence helps), it is even a NIC agnostic performance improvement.

Probably depends on whether or not the iSCSI offload solutions are doing zero-copy receive into the filecache?
