Hello All, Does anyone have any numbers on how much overhead tproxy will add ? Basically, how much drop in performance would we see if tproxy is enabled.
I imagine that tproxy will have to do some lookup and hence should incur some overhead. I also looked at the tproxy mailing list https://lists.balabit.hu/pipermail/tproxy/2005-February/000167.html and it seems to suggest that tproxy is not doing very well. I am also trying a setup myself. (192.168.1.201) client ----------- proxy ----------- server (10.51.6.197) eth0 (10.51.6.102) eth1 (192.168.1.102) * There is no direct link between the server and the client. * The servers' default gw is the proxy, and the proxy has forwading on. * Polymix4 running on the client & server. * I dont have any sticky load balancer or routers, hence i am doing this setup. Do you think this setup will be able to test the tproxy fairly ? I would appreciate any comments. Thanks -- Pranav ------------------------------ http://pd.dnsalias.org
