Hello everyone.

I have just been benchmarking my freeVSD test server to ensure that its
up to scratch before we consider going live.  Let's give you a bit of
background (don't laugh at the system specs - we're buying a proper
server soon!).

Testing on 100mbps internal LAN.
homer.office.fubra       = AMD K6-2 500mhz with 128MB
chiefwigham.office.fubra = AMD K6-2 500mhz with 64MB
brendan.office.fubra     = A virtual server (one of 3) on chiefwigham

homer and chiefwigham basically sit on top of each other.

I have been testing HTTP (with apache benchmark - ab executable) and
FTP.  Testing brendan/chiefwigham was done from homer..

Tests were all done with an 11MB binary (directX 8 dx80eng.exe)  Tests
performed 3 times each.  Results are means of the 3 tests...

HTTP
====
chiefwigham     - 275 k/s
brendan         - 301 k/s (why this is faster than chiefwigham i don't
know either!?)

FTP (downloading)
===
chiefwigham     - 283 k/s
brendan         - 347 k/s

FTP (uploads)
===
chiefwigham     - 192 k/s
brendan         - 180 k/s


So, my question to you, is shouldn't these be a lot better on a 100mbps
LAN?  Is there anything that needs doing to increase these (other than
CPU & RAM upgrades?)

Thanks in advance for any responses,
