I'm actually reporting the values found in the first systat page. I have a suspicion these counters act weird on cloning interfaces (I saw the IPKTS being twice as much as OPKTS on a router without much local-originating/consuming traffic, with fifty carps and vlans on one side and bgp on the other), but in all of these tests the values were more or less the same - around 200k each. The bandwidth was distributed 113MB/s inbound and 70MB/s outbound (depending on the way of course), and I watched it in systat ifs. 2011/3/23 Theo de Raadt <dera...@cvs.openbsd.org>: > -current kernels contain an option called POOL_DEBUG which has a pretty > high impact on network traffic. B Unfortunately POOL_DEBUG is useful.. Thank you! I've only played with DEBUG once, but after failing to explain some of the behaviour I consider myself not educated enough to play with kernel options... Unfortunately I probably won't be able to repeat the tests for some time now, as the machine is already in production. -- Martin Pelikan
