Yes, it works great out of the box. The only setting you can think of
with the ixgbe driver is to deactivate the interrupt throttling but
that's only interesting when receiving lots of packets per second (small
packets you won't see much on a storage with few clients, more likely
when doing routing or LB stuff).

Like I said we don't have a super long experience of X520 and OmniOS
but all lab tests were done with these adapters and servers have been
benchmarked for days on NFS and iSCSI load. It's satisfying and will
go into production.
