Bug Description

For some bridges and interfaces, Fuel configures txqueulen=0, which impacts CPU load badly.

The net.core.netdev_max_backlog should be also adjusted in order to increase networking performance. Current settings of net.core.netdev_max_backlog=1000, this is to small for 10Gb/s interfaces. More info about netdev_max_backlog, see at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/KernelAnalysis-HOWTO-5.html (/proc/sys/net/core section of document)
