There are a couple of possibilities: - They didn't increase the max connections in apache so apache itself was the throttle (unlikely, but possible) - they ran into mbuf limitations They also failed to mention which ethernet card was used. And I bet they had left tcp extensions on, which with lots of small packets probably didn't help much. Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.
