    Which im pretty sure were gone previously ...
  • Running an ASG220 on v8.3 I just tried the steps described here in this thread. The latency was about 200ms higher with web filtering turned on and the speeds are about 30% lower compared to no filtering. After setting the db to be stored on local disk (didn't want to risk running into issues with the 1GB of memory, that is currently 40% used) I don't see any improvement. I pretty much get the same results. I've restarted the http proxy of course and the DB is downloaded and shows 380MB.

    Any ideas why web filtering is still slowing the ASG down so much?
    Can I verify somehow that the locally stored DB is used instead of contacting the Astaro server every time?
    Does anyone else use the 'disk' setting? What's your experience?
