    It's been discussed a bit around here, but anyway, you didn't test
    anything because your IP packets (and therefore your Ethernet frames) are
    too long.

    That's the point : how are padded Ethernet frames that contain short
    packets ? The shorter IP packet you send, the more pad you can see. With
    an IP packet too long, you see no pad at all since you go over the minimum
    size of an Ethernet frame.
