APU2 routing speed NetBSD
Hi All,
I am working with an APU2 board (4gb, 3 lan and AMD CPu 1Ghz
you can see specifications here http://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm)
to make a router/firewall.
Before choosing the OS I want to use I have done some benchmarks.
My first benchmark is:
1) Copy of a big file (17GB) compressed with gzip
from a Windows 10 machine to a Windows 8.1 machine.
This is done by using CIFS on Windows. Each machine
is at one side of the router.
The results are strange:
With OpenBSD and Linux (alpine linux 3.4) I get
the maximum speed (112Mbytes/sec) while with NetBSD
the speed is limited to 70Mbytes/sec.
All the hardware is identical and all the router OS are installed on the APU2.
To do the tests, I simply reboot the router and I choose an
other OS.
Do you have an idea why there is a such big difference? Should I
tune some specific network parameters on NetBSD?
I have done a second benchmark by transferring the same file
with ftp, but this time the second machine was a Linux server
(running on the same hardware as the Windows used for
the CIFS transfer) and I get similar
differences (80-85Mbytes with Linux Router,50-55Mbytes
with NetBSD).
The benchmarks were run without any firewall.
Thank your for your help,
best regards,
Alan
