Yes, that does solve one issue but raises another. We have done
performance tests and setting the tx-ring-limit to a low value really
kills PPS. On 828 it lowers the non-loss thruput from approx 1.4megabit/s
of 64byte packets to something like 600 kilobit/s.
This might not be an issue on a 837 though, as as you also stated in the
email, it only handles 800 kilobit/s of upstream traffic.
