Hi Chukun, thanks for your response. 

At Andrew Lunn's suggestion, I'm doing
more granular and rigorous testing, now using iperf3. I'll post more details
of results here after I retest a couple of scenarios. 

However, I will report now that so far, I'm getting better (faster) and more
consistent results using iperf3.
