Subject: {Q} ftp performance/SLS
Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1993 12:45:30 GMT
I have the Apr 5 SLS installed and have finally hacked the tcp stuff a
bit and gotten it going on my system. The problem I'm seeing is that:
1) telnet works fine
2) ping works fine
3) NFS works fine
4) ftp works only for small file (<100k) and is slow (<30k cps)
Is there some parameter I have to set to get this working, or is this
a known limitation of the current tcp, or what? Any clues would be
useful, I have more time in this already than I can afford.
Note, all my changes were in the area of card detection, in wd.c. I
did a bit of work to insure that the probe didn't run off singing "I
found it" when it hadn't, and didn't use the transfer address in EEROM.
The logic was changed not at all, I just have some stuff in the system
which could look like a net card.
