One thing you seem to not realize is that "1 Gbit/sec full duplex" means
that there is 1Gbps of bandwidth in the TX direction and 1 Gbps of
bandwidth of throughput in the RX direction. So, I don't see how your
test proves anything, since a single SGMII full duplex link to the CPU
should be able to absorb your 715 RX + 742 TX traffic just fine.
