Does anyone know if this applies to the dpdk ENA driver?

My guess is that there's a bridge between the NIC and the VM though which they're imposing the limits.

Could be OVS with DPDK support, for example.

What difference would the driver make?

I'm assuming the limitation is in the smartnic, and perhaps a different driver is tuned differently.
