[9.200] Web filtering causing slow internet browsing?

I upgraded to 9.200 a few weeks ago and noted no decrease in internet browsing speed.  The unit is a 320 with max 100 users behind it.  Most features turned on, including IPS and now ATP.

As of the past few days, browsing is... SLOWWWW.  All of a sudden, sites with lots of images, say, a shopping website, are extremely slow to load.  I went in, turned Web Filtering off, and boom, right back to instant load.  Anyone else experiencing this?

As far as the web filtering config, pretty much default.  Transparent mode, single scan, only block p0rn, all other traffic allowed.

I rebooted the UTM which didn't help.
Thoughts?

hi there,

seems that the problem is gone as i went live with the utm cluster, surfing performance is as fast as i expect it while surfing with the sophos proxy.

the utm was installed in parallel to the old firewall and maybe the packets did some extra turns when initiated by the proxy. but i have no idea how and why it works since the old firewall is turned off.

i will keep an eye on the performance but i think all is ok now

regards
