sk_buff questions?

I have heard there is a connection between the number of NICs, the number of CPUs and the number of sk_buff rings. Is it one ring for each CPU? Is it one ring for each NIC? Or is it something else?
Thanks

You'll get one ring per NIC.
You'll get one socket buffer for each connection that you have.
