thanks for the info. Though, I've ran netperf in my environment, with and without patch, and I havent observed any difference.
Could you please give me information on your environment, how do you invoke netperf, and other details you think I might be interested in to observe problem by myself
Thanks!

I see the same regression on both T410 and NHM EX server. On each test machine, I'm running (2*nr_logical_cpu) the below command in parallel:
netperf -t SCTP_STREAM -c -C -l 120
Thanks,
