Extremely slow ping and slower speed through Astaro

Can someone please help me with this, I have noticed that I seem to get extremely slow ping results when pinging though the Astaro. I tend to get 367ms through the Astaro and around 47ms without going through it. Any ideas why this is happening ?

The download speed seems to be slower as well through the Astaro.

Any help appreciated.

Damn, can't believe I discovered Web Proxy Local content filtering database.

Browsing is super snappy and has knocked of 100ms off from latency test, still need further tweaking

you are going to take a speed hit with anything routed through the proxy due to the scanning involved. if you are using ips you'll take a further hit. if turning off the http proxy and ips doesn't restore performance then you have a config/hardware issue.

I was just wanted to know what could have been causing this, in my old work place we implemented an Astaro however ping/speed was unaffected by the Proxy and IPS.

Might have to get in contact with my old manager

I have been having intermittent connection issues after moving the entire network to a new location. I have tracked the problem down to the astaro 8.30. Ping times with the astaro are at 207ms and 7ms without!?! That is how I found this thread. I would also like to know what is happening. Should I restore a backup config from last week?

kjones,

first off make sure you are running the latest version. We also need full stats on your machine, users, features in use, wan type and speed, right down to which nics you are using.

32 bit install or 64 bit install? You could also have a configuration issue. BTw which i5 specifically?
