Web Browing Slowness

Alvin
Hi

Currently, I "locked down" my Firewall with NO LAN -> Internet = Allow Rule.

This way, it is 100% via the HTTP Proxy which works.

But it is Really Significant slowness as long as I disable the LAN -> Internet Rule.

For DNS, I set it to use Astaro who in turn use Open DNS.

But I do not understand how come the browsing performance is significantly slower.

If I just turn on the rule, it simply is faster.

    they are supposedly going to release an update that gives you the option to preload the database locally instead of always hitting their cloud.  No timetable for said feature release though.

    This feature will be added to 8.200 in the early 2011. But Angelo Comazzetto said that only higher appliances will use the local database, because it needs a lot of ram. So my 220 cannot use this wonderful feature. [:@]

    Hopefully it will be a Featue on the Software Appliance too... 

    (so it doesn´t end up as a "Appliance only" Feature like the Hardware AV Scan from some Time ago...)
