I run 1536/256 ADSL here and found that a figure or 205Kb is the upper
limit for me (versus the 170Kb you have) , any more and the queue wont
drop packets correctly, any less and i'm not getting the full bandwidth
i'm paying for. If you have 256Kb try changing this figure and you
might find you gain some extra speed.
Yeah, i know that i'm not getting the max out of my connection, but if i
set it to anything over 200Kbit i get more lag/delay on the connection.
I had a play a while ago with the qlimit but I had it added into the
"altq on rl1......" line, oddly it never changed a thing and never gave
an error. Since seeing your qlimit statements i've been playing with it
for the past couple of days and working on tuning and found a qlimit of
1 serverly limited queues and they never saw full bandwith potential. I
found a good figure for me was 10 as opposed to a standard 50. My
testing of the qlimit number had me pinging a local site while uploading
with Azurues and watching its graph.
What where your ping-times?
Another thing: i'm trying to prioritize my outgoing icmp-packets.. and
if I send 4 pings i get "8 packets" in pfctl -vs rules on the rule i
made. I would think that "4 packets" would be more correct? *confused*
