I am able to max out my sun qfe at around 9.3MB/second on my lan when passing through the interface twice (two seperate subnets where the qfe is used as the router interfaces). Used http to test the speed of the interface.
The part number/model of my interface is SUN QUAD FAST ETHERNET PCS X1034A 501-5406; Using a 32bit pci slot though the card is 64-bit. Machine is a sunblade 100 with a 500mhz ultrasparc [EMAIL PROTECTED] w/ 768mb ram. pf was managing 25 states at the time of the test. Axton Grams -- Miguel wrote Hi, i read in the archives a lot of references about poor performance with the sun quad ethernet (hme) on diferent servers (netras and sunfires), is this still an issue or has been addressed in 3.8 or 3.9-current, i have two sunfire v120 that are losing packets between their ports, when i "activate" the pf rules the ping response time si very high, around 1253 ms,so our whatsup monitor report then down, the cpu load is very low (0.12) and the memory usage is 70mb, total memory of 512 mb , so this is not a resource problem,. What can i check? --- thanks
