that would have been helpful to know. but if your proxy has a backlog of 128 connections, a backlog of 129 or even 3456 connections is not going to help. i don't understand why people keep asking the same question. if there were some "fast" sysctl knob, why would we set it to "slow"? why would there even be such a retarded knob? any application that remotely cares about performance should be using setsockopt to control the buffer size. if you want help, your post should start "we have this router and i expect it to be going that fast, but it only goes this fast." if your router is already "fast enough", it can't get any faster. there's a only finite number of clients, porn, and pipe to connect them. -- And that's why I'm in New York.
