Low performance in FCOE TX in Nexus 5000

Dear Mister

I have a problem in the transmision of data. I have a Nexus 5000, using VFC(FCoE) toward FC ports. The ethernet with FCOE, also have IP traffic, and thsi traffic is functioning rigth, but, in the same wire, the FCoE show low performance.

How can I see the problems? The wire do not show CRC errors or another problems. The wire I saw OK. The only strange thing in the Nexus 5000, is at level qos discarded packet in the qos-group 1, this group is for FCOE.

I attachs the next :

The discarded packets means something??

I attach the configuration.

I will aprreciate your help.

Did you ever solve this? I am having similar performance issues.

A network diagram would be quite useful ? is it multihop FCoE, Storage connectivity with FCoE,......
