Hi Steve, increasing the buffer size did indeed enhance throughput.
I am obviously not an expert in this field, but i don't understand why or if the TCP Receive Window Size shouldn't increase automatically. I found this thread on the ML and i'm reading myself a bit more into the topic right now. https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2014-August/039495.html Thank you for your tip, however..
