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.

Thank you for your tip, however..

Sydney
