It's been discussed a bit around here, but anyway, you didn't test
anything because your IP packets (and therefore your Ethernet frames) are
too long.

That's the point : how are padded Ethernet frames that contain short
packets ? The shorter IP packet you send, the more pad you can see. With
an IP packet too long, you see no pad at all since you go over the minimum
size of an Ethernet frame.
