You're probably right. The first jumbogram implementation of RX didn't do
that -- it just used big UDP datagrams with a single RX header. But it had
some problems with routers which had small queues, so somebody put in that
"packet headers inside jumbograms" code which, I suspect, obviates most of the
performance gains from the original work.
