File transfert through em0 looks quite slow : at best 17 MB/s (scp

File copy, from one HDD to another or from one HDD to /dev/null,
ranges from 30 to 48 MB/s on the FreeBSD side (SATA HD).
Try testing FTP. SCP will be doing encryption which will slow
the process down. I can't say which HTTP would be slower than
that.
I'm not sure encryption slows it down, the box has 4 CPU (2 dual core
Xeon LV 1.66 GHz), and as I've said, non-encrypted HTTP was slower :/
I have some Dell's with similar specification which will
happily FTP back and forth at around 40MB/s which is reasonable.
I'll give FTP a try, but I would like the network to be fast for
every protocols. I'm planning to share data using NFS, WebDAV, or SMB
(and scp occasionally), but I've still to choose and configure
appropriate servers.
I would like to know if there is a good method to find the bottleneck
and to get rid of it. How comes my GbE is so slow ?
This is a dedicated network right? No other traffic?
the Mac OS X box access the Internet via the FreeBSD gateway (mac<--
>em0(freebsd)fxp0<-->internet), so it's not absolutely dedicated to
my network benchmarks. But internet related traffic was as low as
possible during my tests (few imap sessions, one irc connexion).
