Turn off pf, take out all of the sysctls and see what=20 happens. Then start adding things in one at a time until you find=20 what breaks it. It doesn't take much to do 625K/sec, the default=20 configuration is easily capable of 30 times that. My guess is that=20 either one of the sysctl 'tunings' has broken something, or an=20 interaction between two or more of them has caused an unexpected=20 behavior, but that's an easy enough theory to test. =2D-=20 Thanks, Josh Paetzel --nextPart5347395.JLDcJkdDmE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBGk9GDJvkB8SevrssRAoA0AJ4q4BHMWLDtExrXnUwo6Wfe7rkVJgCfQfY0 hGjRf7gdHmd4b6j/hvG0wjA= =mvLq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart5347395.JLDcJkdDmE--
