Check netstat -s before/after a workload run.

Netstat collects network information from all network devices in the system. Therefore, results might be impacted from networks other than the network under test. The output from netstat -s can be a good indicator of performance issues in the Linux operating system or kernel. Consult operating system tuning guides, such as the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Network Performance Tuning Guide, for more insight on general operating system tuning.
