SUSE9.1 Peculiar Gigabit Lan performance.

Mark Ward · #1 (**permalink**) 01-08-2005

I'm having some peculiar performance issues with my Gigabit Lan.

I have some 100Mb devices so I can't do the necessary "jumbo Frame" tweaks for absolute optimum performance as I'd prevent them access.

I'm getting appauling transfer rates sending files to the linux machine, around 10 Mbps 3% utilization (off the top of my head). However, the second I download from the internet using the Linux machine whilst simultaneously sending files to it I get a very heathy 200mbps+.

Every time I have some files to transfer I now find that I have to set the Linux machine downloading a huge file off the net just so I can get the increased local network performance.

Anyone know how I can get this performance increase without connecting to the net?

Thanks for any pointers,

Mark.
