You could try commenting out the normalize_* to see if it is doing
anything your traffic doesn't tolerate very well.


Perfect!! .. But why?? I don't understand because normalize_* configs
are supposed to work inline mode, no?


You mean disabling normalize_* brought your throughput up to what you
expected?  You could try disabling just one at a time to narrow it down.

Yes, normalization only applies to inline.  We have some tweaks for that
coming out in the next release but really you'd need to capture some packets
to see exactly what the issue is.
