Effectively, I did some tests with your patchset but in a different way. 
I did it with a bridge and with tbench so I didn't got the cpu usage and 
througput is impacted. It will be irrelevant to give these values if we 
can not compare them with Eric's patchset.
Anyway, you are right, it is interesting to have a comparison. For this 
reason I added the ioctl in veth to facilitate automated benchmarking 
and I am finishing the performances test suite for your  patchset. I 
will send the results ASAP.
