RX is definitely the problem.  When I experience such stalls (which seem
to happen as soon as a high packet rate comes in), I can still see
packets coming out through nfe.  I don't remember if I checked with
tcpdump, but pinging the broadcast address does blink the whole switch,
so I'm quite positive.
