Oh, it looks like there are still some issues we don't know about. I did
test using 64 bytes but not at that high of a rate. Also I didn't turn on
timestamp. Anyway, I will try to reproduce the issue when I'm back to
office next Tuesday. It would be nice if you can help find the root cause
before next Tuesday, thanks!
