Also try increasing the device queue length by "ifconfig eth0 txqueuelen 1024". In doing some testing, we found that if you are really bursty in sending data, the device queue will silently drop packets (free them) and I didnt find any stats which show the dropped packets.
Increasing the queue length to 1024 got rid of the problem for us.
