TCP Tuning

Hi all,

I am trying to tune a Linux server but have not been successfull. I have an OC3 w/ 171ms of latency. Based on my reading I want to have a window size of 3.3MB. Based on various docs I have configured my server with the following options.

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_timestamps
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack
echo 8388608 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max 
echo 8388608 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
echo 3313125 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default
echo 3313125 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_default
echo "4096 87380 8388608" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_rmem
echo "4096 65536 8388608" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_wmem

However, across this link I am only peaking at 334KB/s vs. the Sun machines that have been tuned that are pushing over 2MB/s on a 7MB file.

How do I configure my Linux box to beat these Sun machines?

This is a RedHat 7.3 box running their 2.4.18-24.7.xsmp kernel.

Thanks in advance,
Max
