I wonder if there is some repackaging along the way. My model assumes that a single packet traverses the network unchanged in any way.
A fixed delay at the appliance works, but I don't understand how a packet that has to be transmitted twice would take the same amount of time as one transmitted only once. Unless the appliance were to begin transmitting the packet before it had completely arrived. The network speeds are not that relevant in this specific sub context. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Edward Jaffe Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2008 1:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Slow FTP transfer from z/OS to Unix Hal Merritt wrote: > How do you define 'performance'? > We test our network using ftp to transfer large zipped files.
