Fascinating, especially that the RX direction saw such varied speeds across the various NICs. Guess that switch wasn't too keen on trying to split the packets evenly. Also -- 1.5Gbit RX in bidirectional mode? ...all I can say is yikes.
Very good to know.

Yeah probably, I was just using one of those cheap 2x 10G + 4x 2.5G switches that ServeTheHome recently did a video on, so I would not be surprised if that was the bottle neck here.
I could maybe try buying a few more SFP+ transceivers and using my more trustworthy switches, but that seems too expensive for a project like this.
