I used a mixture.  If the pbuf has no chained pbufs (pbuf->next == NULL) I
don't do the copy and use the pointer directly.  If there are chains, I do
the memcpy.  My Ethernet controller supports multiple output buffers for one
packet transmission but I was unable to get it going and it wasn't a
priority to do so.  In my application, the normal mode is there are no
chains in transmit.  99% of my effort has been on optimizing receive
throughput not transmit throughput.
