IPS performance issues

Hi,

I have got my asg running on a hyper-v server, and just upgraded my broadband speed to 100mb.

When running speedtests with IPS enabled, I can only return a result of around 40mb.  Disabling IPS allows me to acheive speeds of around 95-97mb.

The ASG is normally allocated 2GB ram and 2 x 1.3ghz processors.

When monitoring the asg dashboard during the download, the cpu never gets above 40%

I have tried increasing the ram, but this has made no difference at all.

any ideas on what is wrong??
