Hi Gleb,

This feature has been tested small scale in production environments and 
it for sure saves CPU versus doing rate limiting all in software.

Mellanox plans to checkin support for the mlx5en driver which starts 
using this feature soon and I believe np@ has similar plans for cxgbe.

I'll reply to your other questions tomorrow.
