    >hi catohagen, can you tell us wich settings to tweak?
    >I have tried MOSNet 0.19 and i got downspeed with ATC 1,5 MB and upload 3kb, that is bless slow. With Genesis i got up&down 5-6mb.

    i dont use atc but mainly samba to transfer files and stream movies over network
    to my xbox, and with samba i added

    socket options = so_rcvbuf=2048 so_sndbuf=2048

    to lib/smb.conf and transfer rate went up, this have something to do with
    mosnet and tcp stacks that dont have automatic tcp window resizing.
    I guess then the client software have to be adjusted to fit the stack or something
    like that.

    My mosnet 'tweak' settings is :

    TCP_SendSpace=8192
    TCP_RecvSpace=8192

    in db/general.config

    in samba, transfers really fly at the moment, i notice even a difference
    when copy from ambient windows, and from shell, with shell i can adjust copy
    buffer and with a buffer of 100000 i see the mb/s peaks at 7.5 - 8mb/s and
    with ambient copy its around 5- 5.5mb/s.

    Not sure, but i think 1 buffer equals 512byte so thats 5.1mb buffer so less
    hd access and more cpu to push network traffic.

    shell copy without buffer argument is about the same as ambient copy.
    So Mosnet can do well, but everything around it needs to be tweaked to get the
    max output. I think Sonic will adapt Mosnet and update source with automatic
    tcp window resizing later.

    So if you can, use samba instead of ftp :)
