And with the following you should be able to double the FTP rates, assuming you are running switched gigabit between the two boxes. ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_xmit_hiwat 131072 ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_recv_hiwat 131072 The T5120 or T5220 should be able to do much better (on par with FTP) once ssh is enhanced to use the onboard crypto accelerators. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
