I'd also look very carefully at the TCP stack configuration. A good starting point is the spec.org site. Solaris is special. Also note that the above was done on a local network with propably no packed drop or out of order arrival. It is relatively easy to optimize a stack in that environment at the expense of it functioning well in an overload or WAN environment. Any stack should find an accecptable compromize across the board. I suspect that some of the above are not. Dw
