which stmac device are you talking about? its not your windows pc. if 
its a ipq8064 based device or something like that you should look
on a very different location. this platform like the r7800 has stmac 
performance problems since the kernel clk code for this device is lets 
say "very wrong".
so alot of clocks arent correct and so the ethernet performance will 
suffer.

i can tell you that i'm able to get 930 mbit on a stmmac based device. 
but as i said. the kernel needs other numerous fixes to get a good 
performance
