From: Jason Xing Only set xmit.more false for the last skb. In theory, only making xmit.more false for the last packets to be sent in each round can bring much benefit like avoid triggering too many irqs. Compared to the numbers for batch mode, a huge improvement (26%) can be seen on i40e driver while a slight decrease (10%) on virtio_net.
