Hi,

Could iptables really reduce network speed by more than 50%.

It is hard to believe but that seems to be my predicament right now.

For this test I have a 12 meg file.

When I download this from my Linux box is get a download speed of 47.23K/s

When I move this 12 meg file to an internal web server and port-forward
to it from the Linux box I see a download rate of 11.70K/s

Does this sound reasonable?

If I move my Port-forwarding rule higher up woudld it help?

Thanks
Regards
Rudi
