Sure, I've done some basic tests on my machine as below.

Environment: 16 cpus, 60G memory
Server: run "iperf3 -s -p [port]" command and start 500 processes.
Client: run "iperf3 -u -c 127.0.0.1 -p [port]" command and start 500 processes.

Running such tests makes sure that the util output of every cpu is
higher than 15% which is observed through top command.

Here're some before/after numbers by using the "sar -n DEV 10 2" command.
Before: rxpck/s 2000, txpck/s 2000, rxkB/s 64054.69, txkB/s 64054.69
After: rxpck/s 2000, txpck/s 2000, rxkB/s 64054.58, txkB/s 64054.58
So I don't see much impact on the results.

In theory, I have no clue about why it could cause some regression?
Maybe the memory allocation is not that enough compared to the
original code?

Thanks,
Jason
