I'm capturing packets in a Tensorflow two-node training. I want to capture the packet sizes over the wire (< MTU) from the hosts. Because of that, I turned off all of the offloading with ethtool. This is the output of ethtool -k :

When I capture the received packets from each host, the sizes are ok ( < MTU), but on the sender side, I still get 65Kb packets. Do you have any idea of what's going on here and how can I fix this on the sender side as well?
