yes

both run at 300MHz

haven't tried this yet

The TEMAC driver is from EDK 9.1.02 (IOW, SP2).
bitstream made by myself with EDK 9.1.00:
=========================================
root at 192.168.119.11:~/netperf-2.4.1/src# ./netperf -l 30 -H 192.168.119.1 -i 10, 2 -I 99,10 -t TCP_STREAM -- -m 32768 -s 262144
TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.119.1 (192.168.119.1) port 0 AF_INET : ±5.0% @ 99% conf.

bitstream from XAPP941:
=======================
root at 192.168.119.11:~/netperf-2.4.1/src# ./netperf -l 30 -H 192.168.119.1 -i 10, 2 -I 99,10 -t TCP_STREAM -- -m 32768 -s 262144

And I didn't test ML405 receive performance.
