Odd Web Proxy Behavior

scottj_01
All,

I noticed today some slowness with web surfing. Additionally I used several speed test sites and noticed a very high ping times. There have been no changes to the ASG. However uing the comcast & speedtest.net test sites ping times reflected on the site are above 200ms and climbing. Normally they range between 40 and 60ms. I am using Sophos UTM9.004.33 running on a lenovo core 2 duo with 8 gig of ram. Turning off catagories, and other components of the proxy did not correct the issue. I am not using antivirus functions. Once the proxy was turned off ping times noted on the site went down to less than 30ms. The local content filter database is in use on my ASG. A restart of the ASG didn't help.... Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Jim

    Jim, I think the way the tests work is the problem.  They're single-threaded, so they do one thing at a time.  I just ran the Speedtest.net with 8.308.  Through the Proxy, I got 230ms and 1.38Mbps/0.38Mbps.  Using another SSID that doesn't go through the Proxy, I got 29ms and 1.54/0.40.

    Cheers - Bob

    Bob,

    Thanks. It seemed very unusual to me because this changed suddenly. I am getting the correct throughput. Howerver the change from 30 to 60ms to 200ms plus happened this week....

    Thanks,
    Jim
