Dear Andrew Thank you for your help in advance I keep checking the loading. it is running fine. the load averages is not over to 1.0 System info: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz 2G memory for the sysctl var: kern.polling.enable=1 kern.polling.user_frac=10 kern.ipc.somaxconn=2048 kern.polling.poll_in_trap=1 I don't run iperf and my switch is not managable. could you provide any hints to check it? and tune the system also. Thank you again last pid: 47008; load averages: 0.00, 0.02, 0.02 up 80+11:09:17 22:42:18 31 processes: 1 running, 30 sleeping CPU states: % user, % nice, % system, % interrupt, % idle Mem: 100M Active, 1639M Inact, 201M Wired, 60M Cache, 199M Buf, 11M Free --- "Andrew P." <infofarmer@gmail.com> wrote: > On 1/7/06, ann kok <annkok2001@yahoo.com> wrote: > > Hi all > > > > I use feebsd 4.11 as router with intel Giga card > about > > 1 year > > > > Recently, the bandwidth couldn't grow and stop to > > about 383M. ls it the maximum thoughtput of the > > freebsd? > > Yes, FreeBSD has quite a few limits hardcoded which > gives other OSes a chance to look decent in various > tests and benchmarks. > > Anyway, please provide additional details.
