The cited numbers are intended to show that there is no network
bandwidth performance drop from using RECV_ZC.  For the systems under
test (25Gb, 50Gb), we are getting linerate already, so there wouldn't be
any BW improvement.

The zerocopy gains come from a reduction in memory bandwith, removing
the user memcpy overhead, reducing the CPU usage.  This is why I put up
the changes for iperf3, so cpu and membw usage metrics can be collected
while under network load.

Haven't tested jumbo frames, but these are with GRO support.
