On the surface yes, but the problems I was seeing involved Linux getting
quite upset and refusing to do any packet routing when TCP offloading
was in use. Minutes later it would start again. Nothing was ever logged
anywhere to indicate problems it just stopped routing packets.
It's one of those things that isn't necessarily likely to resolve the
problem but is really easy to check.
