Hi Lucas,

thank you for the feedback.

Of course, 65K datagrams is not something expected. It looks like GSO is
not working properly in your case. The expected result is that kernel
will split 65K buffer into smaller UDP datagrams of specified (segment) size,
and this segment size respects QUIC settings.

Do you see it in the wire? If yes, please share output of configure
script, debug log [1], and output of 'nginx -T'.
Are you running nginx on hardware directly or is it some virtual machine?
NIC/interface details are valuable (ethtool -k <interface>,
ip link show <interface>).
