My system is fairly update with the unstable archive. I have a dual processor machine, and i run the 2.2.9 kernel. I also run ipchains.
When I run ftp or fetchmail, everything is ok. Speed is also ok when i use dselect / apt and download packages. This is what troubles me: When I run lynx, mozilla or netscape, the speed is slow, about 1/3 to 1/2 of the ISDN-line capacity, and the utilization is jumping up and down. But: When I run netscape on another linuxbox via this machine (ip masquerading) everything is ok. Now the funniest thing: When i use leafnode, command fetch, I have the same problem from this machine. However, when i set up an tcp-redirector on my other machine, speed is ok. That is, I start leafnode fetch, but point it to my second machine, on which i run redir, and the tcp connection is redirected (back again to this machine and out through the isdn card) to my isp's nntp-server. Any ideas to why i get reduced speed from this machine with some programs? Johan.
