Coming in, you are absolutely right. You will reach the max packet rate
bottleneck, way before you would saturate the incoming NIC.
I believe that you will saturate the outgoing bandwidth, before you reach
the
incoming max packet rate, unless you do DR. (Assuming you are serving
static web pages. Streaming media, or heavy cgi processing is a different
story).
BTW the link

_performance.html appears to be broken.
