Enabling cqe compress changes nothing after reaching 64Gbit RX /
64Gbit/s TX on interfaces cpu's are saturated at 100%

So yes it looks like pcie x16 limit and pcie is 8/8GB/s both directions
- 16GB/s one direction
So 100Gbit/s network controller need to have pcie x32 :)
I understand in normal server host scenario (no forwarding) most traffic
is outbound or inbound - not many situations where we have 100G input
and 100G output.
I will replace then this 2 port 100G nic with two connect-x 5 100G nic's
installed in two different pcie x16
