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.
