Well... you can't get much newer to BSD than me. So, most likely I have no place in this thread at all (please be gentle). And I certainly do not want to get in the middle of something that appears to be on the virge of becoming personal... But.... I was experiencing very VERY poor performance TCP/IP wise, untill I dug up a tip from google.... Someone mentioned that many ISPs do not fully support IPv6, and that 5.2.1 would try to use it first.... and then after a timeout it would try IPv4. So in my case, the solution was to remove IPv6 from my kernel and rebuild. Things zip right along now. -Eric On Thursday 30 September 2004 12:08 pm, TM4525@aol.com wrote: > In a message dated 9/30/04 12:03:05 AM Eastern Daylight Time, > > kris@obsecurity.org writes: > >Perhaps at this point you should go and do that, and avoid yourself > >any further embarrassment. > > I have read it, and I don't equate "might be some regressions in > performance" to > mean "more than twice as slow".
