Hi! We are running a proxy server on freeBSD 4.6.2 and one of our customer requirements is that the users will be accessing ~500k files. During testing the max req/sec the proxy server can sustain without the user robots complaining is about 200 req/s, as the number of req. go up, connection errors appear on the client side. I followed the kernel tuning section in the handbook and increased the nmbufs and cluster to
kern.ipc.nmbclusters: 65536 kern.ipc.nmbufs: 65536 But even then the errors appear. I read about these parameters net.inet.tcp.sendspace: 65536 net.inet.tcp.recvspace: 57344 but I dont know if I should increase these and the above one, because I read it might cause boot time crash. Also, if the testing is done with normal sized objects, then the proxy is easily able to sustain more than 1200 req/s. The network card is Intel 100Mb/s. I would appreciate if anyone can suggest some tuning tips. Thanks you for your time. -Pranav ******************************************************************* Pranav A.
