Hmmm... I looked at the trace again and I'm not sure anymore if it is
indeed the nagle-delayed_ack problem. Could you make a trace like the
one you sent, both on the server as on a laptop attached to a span-port
on the switch (with your server port spanned to it)? I'd like to see the
role of the TCP segmentation offloading on the delays that are visible
in your trace (which seem to be occurring after every 7-8k of data and
slowly increase in delaytime).

Cheers,
