Yes I'm also seeing about 20% higher performance with this patch (from 1.3-1.4
to 1.6 Gbit on same-host VMs). This is awesome!

...and... if I switch TCP Congestion Control from bbr to illinois on sender, I
now get 2.0 Gbit. WTF. :)

Lonnie, which one do you use on your hosts? Try with illinois (it was the best
choice among all of them from my tests before bbr) and bbr (this one tends to
get a bit lower speeds overall, but ramps up so much faster at the start).
