> 6000000/8*.220 = 165Kbytes or 1.32Mbit/s I understand the BDP concept and the calculation to then generate the tcp window sizes. What I don't understand is this...
How in the world is a windows 2000 box running commercial software able to push this link to 625KByte/s (5Mbit/s)???? How can I get similar results with FreeBSD? I don't care about any other traffic on the network at the same time as my transfer, just the raw performance of my transfer.

Your bw*delay product is 6000000/8*.220 = 165Kbytes, so telling ncftp to set its so-bufsize to say 200K, and telling your ftp daemon to do the same thing, should be all you need. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
