It is not just a slow down, Ethernet is unusable at 1 Gbit/s speed in the mainline kernel.
I did not try the newest kernels (4.15-rc).
Do you know that you can work around it by using ethtool?
ethtool -K eth0 rx off tx off
The rx is not really needed but can't hurt anyway.
another trick might be to set the mtu size to something smaller than 1500 like 1492.
Both worked for me.
