I assumed 8B to mean data that is on top of TCP/UDP?
If so then in the case of UDP we have 8B UDP header, 20B IP and 14B
ethernet < 64B minimal allowed Ethernet packet; so it gets padded and
goes out as 64B.
There are, as you state above, 1.147(or is it 1.48?) such packets/sec in
1Gbps.
So (70Mbps/1000Mbps)*1.147 is the rough number i was reffering to.

That will be nice because remember we can have multiple CPU packet
producers but only one CPU consumer.

I havent seen a patch. Can you resend it?
