The prepatch 87 for ppp seems to speed things up for solaris.... it is still kinda slow but better. Acutally. I just noticed that it speeds up for a little bit and then slows down. what I type slows up as I type then it does the block thing again for a little bit. I think something needs a little tweaking here. I do more testing as to how fast the connection is ....
My rough tests show the times for a 100k file with just passwd fields in them The machines specified are target machines.
sending receiving SunOS 4.1.4 5.76k/s 3.70k/s Solaris 2.4 5.69k/s 3.46k/s Linux 1.3.84 5.69k/s 3.28k/s
This is using ncftp.
So performance is up but surprisingly Linux-Linux does not work better than Linux-SunOS... but then again bandwidth might be the reason. The SunOS and Solaris boxes are closer and on fiber whereas the Linux goes over 128k ISDN.
