Hyper-v how reduce lag and increase throughput?

I just got my sophos going thanks to the help of ruhllatio. I am static about the way this UTM works and the features. The problem I am having is that lag is horrendous and my speed is as bad. Before sophos I was pinging at 5 ms and now I am pushing 300. I have a 105 internet connection and I am barelly getting thirty.

I have IPS turned off, I know that virtual nic's add overhead but wao that much?

If there is not much I can do, If I create a dedicated box, will I be able to get 100 megs even with IPS turned on?

Right now my machine is an intel I5-2500 it has 8 gigs of ram, I am allocating 3 gigs to astaro CPU at 2 percent and ram at 24 percent.

Thanks

Seems good van, however it seems always better to assign to each virtual nic also a real physikal nic for better throughput. Also the real difference in performance and throughtput increas is made by using soldi real physikal nics, which would be quality intel or braodcom, cisco brand nics and only use all from the same in one setup of your utm nics.

I was having the same issue and it got a little better and closer to the 100mbps when I updated my broadcomm 5719 drivers.

So, let this be the first check, verify if you're using the most recent network driver possible on your windows host machine.
