The common usage in DPDK is to have one transmit queue per DPDK thread doing
transmits. If the transmit queue is not configured with enough depth.
The most common packet flow in DPDK is packets getting received, modified
then transmitted. With that pattern, packet loss is at the receiver when
the CPU can't keep up with the packet rate arriving.
