Hello, I have squid 2.7.STABLE6 running on Server 2008. Its purpose is a reverse-proxy for several web services. For instance, one service is OWA, another is a web-based file-sharing utility, and another is a plain old web site. All DNS records (mail., files., www.) point to the same IP which is NATted to Squid. Each of these services is running on a separate machine. It all works great. Squid determines which back-end machine/port to request the data from based on http headers. It's squid at its finest. However, file transfers through it are very slow. The connection is 20Mbit. When I go directly to the web file server via a direct NAT, I can download at full speed. 1.5MB/s is common from this method. However, when I go through the squid reverse-proxy, response time is great but file transfers never go above 200K/s. It's almost as if connections are capped/throttled at a certain speed within squid. I tested a direct web server on port 80 under the suspicion that the ISP was throttling port 80 but it was fine. I am having a devil of a time tracking down this problem, and any suggestions are most welcome. Thanks. Joe
