Could be many things. From disk speeds, to OS swapping, or FD exhaustion
(Windows is system-capped at 1K handles IIRC).

To be precise, the FD limit on Windows is 2048, it's hard coded in the MS C Runtime Library.

Another thing to check is any antivirus software running on the proxy machine.

Please also note that the Windows 2008 support in the 2.7 STABLE6 and previous is not optimal (fixed in the next 2.7 STABLE7), but this it should not impact on throughput.

Regards

Guido
