Our email system does very strange things sometimes, sorry about that.

Unless I'm mistaken, the log doesn't show the packet tx count at the
driver- which I think is what we need for a hint as to where the
packets are being lost.  You have the tx count at the application
layer- so thats what the driver's count will compare to.

Given your simple topology, I'm suspecting the driver.  Could you
write a program to exercise all packet lengths between say ~100 to
~1450, so we can see if there are periodic trouble spots?

I'm in the middle of the run-up to a major deliverable, so I can't
devote much time this week.  Next week will be a big relief... and
I'll be happy to help then.   :)
