Finally i've simply added manually to /etc/network/interfaces 'mtu 9000' to all
related interfaces (phisical, bond, bridge) and now Jumbo Frames works
as expected:

PING 10.5.252.1 (10.5.252.1) from 10.5.252.8 vmbr2: 8500(8528) bytes of data.

while does not work for non-jumbo interface, as expected:
root at tessier:~# ping -I vmbr0 -s 8500 -M do 10.5.1.3
PING 10.5.1.3 (10.5.1.3) from 10.5.1.8 vmbr0: 8500(8528) bytes of data.

Good, thanks to all!
Still no hint on further optimization via ethernet parameters
manipulation, eg via ethtool?
