If you can construct a test case, the upstream developers at
netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx will be a better target than fedora-test-list.

Unfortunately, it's not a bug, it's a feature :
"This came up with java debugging already. The problem is when the
sender writes a message in separate write() system calls, each one
becomes a separate packet. In 2.6.15 we do a new thing called
Appropriate Byte Count and that penalizes stupid applications, but
provides better fairness over the internet by accounting for packets
better."
I've sent this comment over to the "stupid application" developers at
GSOAP. I guess they (and I) unreasonably expect lo to be at least as
fast, or faster, than ether...
