Hi, I would like to know some results from ml readers. I tested OpenBSD 3.2-stable with with setup:
CPU Pentium 133 RAM 96 Mb 2 x Realtek (rl0 & rl1) [yes, I know there's better hardware...] rl0 = 10.0.1.1 rl1 = 10.0.2.1 IP forwarding enabled ---- pf.conf ---- pass in quick all pass out quick all ----------------- The test: 10.0.1.10 ---> 10.0.1.1 [PF] 10.0.2.1 ---> 10.0.2.10 It was a FTP transfer between .1.10 and .2.10 and got 3 Mbyte/s as max transfer rate and the console was not responsive. Using a switch (instead of the box) I jumped to 6.5 Mbyte/s. Is there anyone who could try the same test with similar CPUs ? For example, will PF get a boost from MMX registers ? Thanks. Ed
