While playing around with systat I've discovered that the transfer =20 rate can be as low as 20 KB/s and as high as 850 KB/s on a single =20 download from http://test-debit.free.fr, but the mean value will =20 always be around 120-150 KB/s when pf is active. =46rom one sample to =20= another (every second), the transfer rate is very erratic. If I disable pf on ext_if (set skip on $ext_if), the transfer rate =20 reaches quickly 850 KB/s and is almost stable. It decreases to =20 400-450 KB/s for 1 or 2 seconds, 3 or 4 times per minute. regards, patpro=
