Hello,
In the last week I noticed poor DNS performances and
obviously web surfing suffers, too.
This is the output from a PC configured to use the IP
address of the main pfSense machine:
$time nslookup www.google.com
nslookup can take from 0.022s to 5.004s or even
10.04s!
I have to click twice or three times a link in a web
page to successfully connect to it without timeout
error.
Bandwidth from the ISP seems to be OK.
I noticed if a PC download near at the max speed from
a HTTP page, DNS performance becomes worst. I didn't
experience this behaviour in the previous release of
pfSense. Previous one seemed to handle better a high
load.
Maybe a re-installation of pfSense (1.2RC2) can
improve this situation or some network settings have
been changed in the latest release?
Notice that no P2P programs were or are running.
I heard about BIND: does pfSense already offer its
features?
I've a further question to pfSense's developer about
the 'at' command: is it broken in the 1.2RC-2 version
(see message entitled: "How to schedule shutdown and
box heartbeat")?
Thanks.
