Not sure to which mail to answer, so answering here - thanks all

1) I've simulated packet drop using iperf
Host:
- arp -s <some IP> <unknown MAC>
- iperf -c <some IP> -u -l60 -b700M -t60 -i1

DUP:
- place interface in promisc mode
- check rx_packets stats

I see big improvement ~47Kpps vs ~64Kpps

2) I've run iperf3 tests - see no regressions, but also not too much improvements

3) I've applied 2 patches
- this one
- and [1]

Results are below, Thank you
