Patching the tx_add_credit function worked like a charm.
Thanks a lot!

It thus looks like the culprit is netfront, or possibly a
netback/netfront interaction (Q: is netback employed in the qemu-dm
emulation path, or packets are simply relayed from the tap to vifX.Y?).
I would love to provide more information, but I'm unsure where to get it.
 
What version of netback are you running? The one from the 3.0.3 release is
known to have a bug which would cause high-bandwidth transfers to stall.
The offending function is netback.c:tx_add_credit(). You should be able to
take the version from xen-unstable and copy it into whatever version of
netback.c you are using.
