Title: Less latency when firewall is stressed
Post by: dyonis0s on June 07, 2019, 05:25:24 pm

Hello,

I made performance testing last time.
I configured OPNSense in bridge mode with 2 client.
Those clients forward their traffic through the firewall.
When I ping without stressing the firewall, I got about 1ms of latency.
But when I ping the firewall and generate a traffic to the maximum capacities of the firewall (about 1.5Gbps) my latency is two times less than not charged, about 0.5ms.
Any ideas of what is happening ?

Thank you ;)
