Hi. We have a problem with linux tcp/ip. There are two equal servers connected to 1Gbit switch, one with FreeBSD, another with Linux. On each server we use nginx http server. FreeBSD server output is about 450Mbit/s, but Linux server maximum 70Mibt/s only. Accept any ideas. # uname -a Linux telecom2 2.6.26.5-x86_64-common_server #2 SMP Thu Sep 25 23:35:06 MSD 2008 x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5130 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux # cat /etc/sysctl.conf net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 131072 net.ipv4.tcp_max_orphans = 262144 net.core.somaxconn = 16384 net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=10 net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets = 360000 net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 3000 net.core.rmem_max = 16777216 net.core.wmem_max = 16777216 net.core.rmem_default = 262144 net.core.wmem_default = 262144 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 16777216 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 16777216 net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save=1 net.ipv4.tcp_moderate_rcvbuf=1 net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 0 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 10000 65535 net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control = htcp net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1 net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1 net.ipv4.tcp_synack_retries = 2 net.ipv4.tcp_syn_retries = 2 fs.file-max = 2097152 # iptables -L -n -v firewall empty ifconfig eth0 RX packets:4934238 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:5572963 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:695642752 (663.4 Mb) TX bytes:4010944866 (3825.1 Mb) # lspci -vvv -s 04:00.0 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation PRO/1000 EB Network Connection with I/O Acceleration (rev 01) Subsystem: Super Micro Computer Inc Unknown device 1096 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr+ Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 32 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 760 Region 0: Memory at d8020000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Region 1: Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Region 2: I/O ports at 2000 [size=32] [virtual] Expansion ROM at d8400000 [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [c8] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI+ D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0+,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold+) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=1 PME- Capabilities: [d0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable+ Address: 00000000fee0f00c Data: 41a1 Capabilities: [e0] Express Endpoint IRQ 0 Device: Supported: MaxPayload 256 bytes, PhantFunc 0, ExtTag- Device: Latency L0s <512ns, L1 <64us Device: AtnBtn- AtnInd- PwrInd- Device: Errors: Correctable- Non-Fatal- Fatal- Unsupported- Device: RlxdOrd+ ExtTag- PhantFunc- AuxPwr- NoSnoop+ Device: MaxPayload 128 bytes, MaxReadReq 512 bytes Link: Supported Speed 2.5Gb/s, Width x4, ASPM unknown, Port 0 Link: Latency L0s <128ns, L1 <64us Link: ASPM Disabled RCB 64 bytes CommClk+ ExtSynch- Link: Speed 2.5Gb/s, Width x4 Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting Capabilities: [140] Device Serial Number 6e-69-61-ff-ff-48-30-00 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
