are you sure network bandwidth is not limiting your test due to the larger
requests? It needs a gigabit network for TUX performance to become CPU
limited on any >500MHz CPU. If you are network-limited then you should
watch CPU utilization (via 'top' for example) - how much user and system
time is Apache using, compared to TUX?
