MegaRouter-KARAM ~ # ethtool -g eth1
Ring parameters for eth1:
Pre-set maximums:
RX:             4096
RX Mini:        0
RX Jumbo:       0
TX:             4096
Current hardware settings:
RX:             256
RX Mini:        0
RX Jumbo:       0
TX:             256

After i tried to set ethtool -G eth1 4096 system becomes extremely slow, what
is very strange for me. I had to soft-reboot it (over kexec).

About NMI interrupts - nmi_watchdog=1, if i disable it, it doesn't change
anything.
