The default window size (controlled by the socket buffer size) can
be globally modified using sysctl variables:
net.inet.tcp.sendspace: 16384
net.inet.tcp.recvspace: 16384
As you mention, changing this (and other things such as the amount
of mbufs/clusters, etc.etc.) must be done considering the
hw configuration and other issues.
It is not a big deal to move the default to 32 or 64k, and I'd
vote for that, but if a sysadmin is unable to have a look at this,
then the problem is in the sysadmin, not in FreeBSD!
cheers
