9.0-PRERELEASE slow scp transfer

2011-11-22 Thread Bas Smeelen
Hi

I have a stange thing.

1. 7.3-RELEASE-p2 on dell poweredge SC440 with bge nic
2. 9.0-PRERELEASE on another dell poweredge SC440 bge nic
3. 7.4-RELEASE-p4 in a vmware virtual machine with em nic

When i copy a file with scp which is a few hundred megabytes on 1. from 2.
or from 3. i get about 10MB/s
When i copy a filewith scpwhich is a few hundred megabytes on 3. from 1. or
from 2. i get about 10MB/s
When i copy a file with scpwhich is a few hundred megabytes on2. from 3.i
get about 10MB/s
When i copy a file with scp which is a few hundred megabytes on2. from 1.i
get about 130 KB/s

I can find nothing in the logs or netstat errors on this 9.0-PRERELEASE box.
I have switched network kabels and ports on the switch.

How could i further investigate?

Thanks in advance

Check the duplex settings in ifconfig(8) output on all three machines.
They should all say:

   media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX full-duplex)

assuming you're not forcing everything to a particular speed.  Any
mention of '100baseTX half-duplex' indicates a failure to negotiate
the link settings, which could well be due to a hardware problem.  Mind
you, in that case you'ld see plenty of errors in the output of 'netstat -i'

If that's not the problem then it sounds like you've eliminated all the
obvious causes.  Which means a bug in 9.0-PRERELEASE, so please bring
this up on freebsd-current@... where it should come to the attention of
the developers working on getting 9.0 out of the door.  Include 'pciconf
-lbv' output for the NICs and PHYs on all three machines if you would be
so kind.

Cheers,

Matthew
