Hello all,
I just put OpenBSD 3.8 (fresh install) on my IBM Netfinity 3000 server, and
I'm experiencing some funny things.
When the connection is idle (no torrent traffic, no msn,ftp and so on),
pings from my country servers are ok:

When there is some traffic (torrent - seeding some OSS), but the line is not
full l, I get from a Winbox (dl: 30kb/s, ul: 40kb/s -on a 4mbit/512kbit ADSL
line):

Pings get even higher if there are more connection even up to 2000ms (like
some hick-ups), It doesn't matter what kind of transfer speed it is.
Occasionaly I even get a request timed out. When I use MSN voice conference,
voice signal gets broken and so on...
I didn't change any major settings on the OpenBSD 3.8 Generic box, just set
up pf.conf for a nat and ip.forwarding=1 in sysctl.
# netstat -m
136 mbufs in use:
127 mbufs allocated to data
3 mbufs allocated to packet headers
6 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses
65/142/6144 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
352 Kbytes allocated to network (46% in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines
What should I do? I didn't experience this on a previous Linux box.
Thank you for your answers!
