Yeah, thought so. We certainly tune TCP/IP (and just about everything else) in all fileservers here for maximum throughput, be it over http, ftp, CIFS or NFS. If there is a reason to shape bandwidth, it is done through other means at the outbond QoS shaper. That's why I found it strange that he asked about multi-megabyte windows. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
