Is it a known problem that on my e1000 interface, if iptables type
modules are insmodded, my outgoing traffic slows to a crawl?
Modules in question:
ip_nat_irc 5360 0
ip_nat_ftp 6000 0
iptable_nat 24996 4 ipt_MASQUERADE,ip_nat_irc,ip_nat_ftp
ip_conntrack_irc 72340 1 ip_nat_irc
ip_conntrack_ftp 73236 1 ip_nat_ftp
ip_conntrack 31788 6
ipt_MASQUERADE,ip_nat_irc,ip_nat_ftp,iptable_nat,ip_conntrack_irc,ip_conntrack_ftp
ip_tables 19712 2 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat
Without them, I get normal 100Mbs type transfers approaching 10MB/s but
with them installed, I'm getting closer to 50KB/s. If I remove the
modules, things get better. (I need though them so my ipaq can talk to
the rest of the world.) Or is this just an old software/new kernel
problem?
I'm running 2.6.0-0.test2.1.29smp on a dual 3.0GHz Dell 650N.
Thanks,
tjb
