7.501 HTTP proxy - throughput extremely slow

I just installed ASG Software version 7.501 on a P4 2.8ghz with 1GB RAM and two Realtek gigabit ethernet controllers for WAN and LAN. Everything else is working just fine.
I'm trying to utilize the transparent web proxy for AV scanning and caching, but with it on I am taking a tremendous speed hit.
With HTTP proxy off I get 26mbits down at TWC speedtest. With proxy on, I get 10. I've tried various combinations of settings for the proxy (turning off caching, disabling the access log, disabling AV scanning) but whenever the proxy is on, download speeds are slow. It's not only speedtests, but any download. No matter what I do, as soon as proxy is off, speeds go right back up to normal.
I've checked HW reports and CPU usage is never spiking above 40%, mostly its under 10%. (2 spikes to 40% in 12 hours and those were probably during upgrade and/or restarts)
Seems that my box should have plenty of power to sustain 20mbit downloads. Previously this box was working wonderfully with smoothwall. (came back to astaro after the home license chanages(thank you astaro!))
I can't be the only one here.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

  • BrucekConvergent Thanks,

    I couldn't find any info about it.
    Since my system is a full scale (500 users) system, and there is no way back (beside shut down and perform clean install, I would like to see some info about it first.
  • I see, yeah, I'd wait too.  I'm only installing it at a few customer sites that need it badly to fix some issues, and some testing units.  So far so good, though.
