"I checked lxc-0.6.1 and your commit 75d09f83
(set mtu for netdev).

I found a problem of the MTU size of br0.  In the current code,
device_set_mtu() is
called after bridge_attach(), so the MTU size of br0 is set to the
default MTU size
of veth0 (i.e., 1500 bytes).
This causes performance degradation as I reported.

We need to modify to call device_set_mtu() before bridge_attach()"

Now that we have the network functions accessible, do not longer
use the lxc_configure_veth, lxc_configure_macvlan and split
the configuration of the veth in order to create it, configure it
and finally attach it to the bridge.
