Do you have any content filtering going on, such as Anti-Virus Scanning? Often these have an associated trickle size and other parameters which limit file transfers. What about traffic shaping? > Another thing that makes me extremely suspicious is occasionally when I > start a transfer I'll see a brief cpu spike -- like shown below It's not so unusual to see a brief CPU spike when the sessions are starting up - the first packet has to be processed via First Packet processing, typically being punted up to the CPU for analysis for determination as to whether the packet should be allowed by policy. If it is allowed, it is instantiated in the session table and subsequent packets are processed via Fast Packet processing, which essentially means it's handled via the GigaScreen ASICs and not via the main CPU. -- Stefan _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
